Your question is incomplete, but quotation marks are used to make direct quotes of the words of a person and they usually start in this format:

  • "Come pick me up by 3", he said
  • "I am hungry", she cried

You can see that the quotation marks make use of the symbol "" and then a comma either before or after the quote to make reference to the speaker.
