There are many rules when writing papers.  The first is to always give credit where credit is due (that is also probably a quote that needs to be cited, but who said it first?).  These links will give you information about plagiarism and help you to understand if you did it.  If you are questioning if you have plagiarized, you can always go to the Writing Center or go to their website for great resources.
