If you are dealing with a short story within a novel, the title of the short story should be italicized. This is a convention in writing to separate it from the surrounding text. Regarding quoting, if you are pulling a passage from the short story, you use quotation marks. Let's say in a complex novel that has interspersed short stories, like 'The Canterbury Tales' which has multiple tales (short stories). When you write about 'The Knight's Tale' within it, italicize the title. And if you want to use a passage like 'Whan that Aprill with his shoures soote...' from the tale, you put it in quotation marks.
