Modern Chinese usage includes all of 《》〈〉「」『』【】“” and probably others, roughly in that order. Modern typographic convention is perhaps 《title》「quote」 but that's surely opine and debatable. Hong Kong and Taiwan have their own typesetting conventions, distinct from mainland China, and in the latter case no doubt influenced by Japanese occupation and cultural inflow (manga, etc.). Historically for most of Chinese history written language had no punctuation, and sentence endings were merely inferred from context, which was historically clearer 也.
