Periods and commas always go inside quotation marks, even
inside single quotes.
The placement of question marks with quotes follows
logic. If a question is in quotation marks, the question mark should be placed
inside the quotation marks.
Examples:: She
asked, "Will you still be my friend?” Do you agree with the saying, "All's fair in love
and war”?
NOTE: Only one ending punctuation mark is used with
quotation marks. Also, the stronger punctuation mark wins. Therefore, no period
after war is used.
When you have a question outside quoted material AND
inside quoted material, use only one question mark and place it inside the
quotation mark.
