Block Quotes Block quotes in MLA are used when a large portion of text must be directly quoted. According to the 7th edition MLA handbook, if a quotation extends to more than four lines when placed in your document, set it off from your text by beginning a new line, indenting the entire quoted section one inch from the left margin, and typing it double-spaced, without adding quotation marks. If you quote a single, entire paragraph, do not indent the first line more than the rest. Include a parenthetical, in-text citation at the end of your block quote outside of the punctuation. Block quotes are often introduced with a colon, but this may not be required depending on the structure of the connecting sentence. To set up a block quote in word, highlight the text you wish to include in the block quote and click on the increase indent button twice. This button is located in the Paragraph category on your Home ribbon and looks like this: A block quote may also be set by using the ruler at the top of your word document. Make sure all parts of the indention indicator have been moved to the 1 inch marker as indicated in the screenshot above. If your paragraph does not indent properly even after following the above steps, make sure that you have included a hard return (pushed enter once) both before the block quote and directly after it. No additional space is needed between the block quote and the rest of the document text.
