Eg: Let's say you want to quote Joker (played by Heath Ledger in "The Dark Knight") and you write:
As said by Joker: "Why <u>are you</u> so serious?"
In the example above, the essence of the original quote was lost, since the omission of verb and subject (Why so serious?) was what gave the classic quote its mysterious charm. So, it is best to keep it the way it actually is:
As said by Joker: "Why so serious?"
