Use italics: Common Sense.
Reason: Titles of standalone works (books, pamphlets, movies, journals) are italicized in major style guides (Chicago, MLA, APA). Quotation marks are used for shorter works (articles, poems, chapters) or when following AP style/newspaper conventions. If you can’t use italics (handwriting or plain-text), underline the title (Common Sense) or follow the style guide required by your publisher/instructor.
