"When you begin to work on a first draft (see chapter 12), you'll have to plan in light of your readers' point of view: how to introduce your problem to make it seem significant to them; how much background to present; and how to order your subclaims; and so on" (Booth Colomb, and Williams 139).

"But if you read carefully and reread everything crucial to your own conclusions, you will draft summaries and copy quotations within the context that matters most, the context of your own grasp of the original " (Booth, Colomb, and Williams 100).

"Those who cannot reliably do research or evaluate the research of others will find themselves on the sidelines in a world that increasingly depends on sound ideas based on good information produced by trustworthy inquiry" (Booth, Colomb and Williams 9).
