Answer: It depends on the content and context of the quote. However, in general, the correct way to write the sentence would be:

Susan said, "My neighbor stated, 'Quote goes here,' and I believe it adds great insight to my essay."

Alternatively, if the quote is being incorporated into a larger sentence, it could be written as:

"My neighbor, who I spoke to yesterday, said, 'Quote goes here,' and I found it particularly relevant to my essay topic."

It is important to use quotation marks around the exact words that the neighbor said and to attribute the quote to the neighbor in order to avoid plagiarism.
