If you’re including a longer passage, you may omit quotation marks and clearly offset the quote from the rest of the text by employing a block quote. Like the shorter example above, remember to include the author’s last name(s), the publication year, and the page number before or after the quoted text.
Chicago Manual of Style: Quotes Cont.
Example 1:
These reviews have often raised questions and concerns about when and how much force was used to quell a disturbance or take a suspect into custody. The difference in perceptions of the public and police as to what exactly constitutes justified force contributes significantly to this debate. According to Bittner (1990, 97):
Though it is expected that policemen will be judicious and that experience and skill will guide them in the performance of their work, it is foolish to expect that they could always be swift and subtle. Nor is it reasonable to demand that they prevail, where they are supposed to prevail while hoping that they will always handle resistance gently.
For some members of the public, politicians and some police administrators, the simple solution is to use less force. Fyfe (1987) discusses the negative consequences of both unnecessary force by officers and the consequences of insufficient use of force by police.
