No. A citation simply gives credit to the source you are obtaining the information from. For example if someone cited "[quote]," then there should be an in-text parenthetical citation. In MLA format, this is given as the last name of the author and page number surrounded by parentheses. For example, "Quote quote quote" (Brains 1).
