I always wonder why writers put things in parenthesis most of the time, if the person they are quoting actually said it or if they are just filling the blank.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

It means the person didn't actually say it, and the writer is trying to help the reader out. Brackets, IMO, are better for that purpose than parentheses.
