Why not quote the latest research instead of quting someone talking about the latest research?

here "claim" is a verb we use to quote.

also "believe" etc.

I want know all these verbs that I can use to Quote.

Some verbs can show a little attitude.
eg A claims that . . . can suggest some reservation on the part of the person who writes this sentence.
There are plenty of possibilities. here are some.

A says that . . .
A notes that . . .
A finds that . . .
A indicates that . . .
A suggests that . . .
