In the world of today with modern technology plagiarism has become easy to do and also easy to catch.  Since I could remember when ever I had a papers due all my teachers/professors would emphasize on plagiarism.  I think its laziness that makes students plagiarize, its not difficult to quote somebody and put it in your own words.  I feel by quoting you show where the idea came from and giving it credit, I also think that quoting is a great way to expand your paper.  When I did my 10 page research paper I used quotes to help me reach 10 pages without them its safe to say I wouldn’t have finished.  Using quotes is never a bad idea especially if you could plagiarize from it, it just shows how much it talks about your topic but instead of trying to steal it use it and your paper would just be that much longer.  Always think positive and do the right thing.
