@Rune - xD

@Time - Well, depends on the circumstance.

Usually, they're to be left in normal text so you work on the flow of sentences in the narrative. But, if you want to emphasize a really important detail (e.g. a realization), then you can use it with italics. But, too many italics annoy the reader, and they're often used with emphasis on just normal words, or telepathy (though the latter is probably just me), or to emphasize titles (of books, movies, et cetera).

Of course, quotation tags are a different matter. They're to be in normal text in all cases. I don't see much of this other than in amateur writers, though, and I haven't met many of those online.
