HTML Quotation

In HTML, you can mark up quotations using the `<blockquote>` and `<q>` elements. These elements allow you to designate quoted content within your web page. Here's how you can use them:


1. `<blockquote>` element:

The `<blockquote>` element is used for longer block-level quotations. It indicates that a section of text is quoted from another source. Here's an example:

html
<blockquote>
    <p>This is a blockquote.</p>
    <p>It represents a longer quotation from another source.</p>
</blockquote>

By default, browsers typically indent the content inside `<blockquote>` and add some vertical spacing to visually differentiate it from the surrounding text.


2. `<q>` element:

The `<q>` element is used for shorter inline quotations. It is used to mark up a brief quotation that is integrated within a paragraph. Here's an example:

html
<p>According to <q>Albert Einstein</q>, "Imagination is more important than knowledge."</p>


The `<q>` element adds quotation marks around the quoted text. Browsers usually render the content within `<q>` with quotation marks or other appropriate styling.

Both the `<blockquote>` and `<q>` elements can be used to give semantic meaning to quotations and provide visual cues to readers. Additionally, you can apply CSS styles to customize the appearance of these elements to match your design preferences.

Remember to use quotations responsibly and attribute them to their original sources to uphold integrity and respect for intellectual property rights.
