I heard a misconception that you can write with improper grammar to represent a character that has improper grammar. What you really want to do is use proper grammar to help set the tone of a character that is unable to use proper grammar or to represent a theme of ignorance. Quoting a character who says something with flawed grammar is not considered grammatically inappropriate as those quotes are merely representative and are not "actual" writing.
