Researchers have studied how people talk to themselves:
Internal speech is a paradoxical phenomenon. It is an experience that is central to the daily lives of many people, yet it presents considerable challenges to any effort to study it scientifically. However, a wide range of methodologies and approaches have been combined to shed light on the subjective experience of inner speech and its cognitive and neural underpinnings. (Alderson-Day and Fernyhough, 2015, p. 957)
Do not use quotation marks to enclose a block quote.
