Long Answer:
In The World: Ponyboy and Johnny are ambushed by a group of Socs. Because Ponyboy is without a weapon, he quickly is beat down in the fight; when he awakens from his unconscious state, he discovers that Johnny has killed one of the Socs. With the help of Dally, Ponyboy and Johnny make their escape, hopping on a train to Windrixville and hiding out in an abandoned church. Ponyboy claims about this journey: "This is the country, I thought half asleep. My dream's come true and I'm in the country."

In this case, the MLA format states that for a quote to be made, it is necessary, first, that quote be placed in quotation marks. Then, it is necessary that, in parentheses, the surname of the author and the page number where the quote can be found are presented.
