I have to cite it in MLA citation for a quote chart, which the teacher said is

"...quote..." (Orwell pg#).

My quote is:

"Comrades!" he cried. "You do not imagine, I hope..."

Do you use ' ' marks or something? How do you show a paragraph break?

    What @Kona said. For paragraph breaks, you also start a new paragraph, with a new double-quote mark -- the " mark -- at the beginning of the new paragraph. You do NOT put an ending double-quote mark at the end of each paragraph, but only at the end of the last paragraph you're quoting.

    I believe it would be:

    "'Comrades!' he cried. 'You do not imagine, I hope...'" (65)

    Parenthesis around the page number.

    Hope that helps!
