Chapters four and five of They Say, I Say discuss signal verbs and voice markers.

You can use the following signal verbs to signal readers how you have evaluated your source, and "signal" to them how to respond, while voice markers differentiate between who is "speaking" - you or a source - and when you are moving beyond summary to respond to a quotation. They may specifically identify a speaker - X states that, Y argues that - or indicate, for example, disagreement - "and yet," "however," etc.; in general, the move from the source material to your opinion.

What is the difference between the following ways of introducing quotations?
