Use quotes when including a citation or testimonial on a page. Depending on the type of quote, one of the types below.

Jump to a component:

Blockquotes

Use a blockquote to specify a section of text that is quoted from another source. A citation is optional (but recommended if possible).

Styling

Blockquotes have a teal border on the left side, more padding around the text than normal paragraphs, and the text is lighter gray and italicized. The citation is on a new line, is right-aligned, and has a “—” (dash) before the text.

How to use for Blockquotes

Add in the HTML (see “development info”).

Stylesheet location: /_source/styles/base/_typography.scss

  • Do add the quotation marks, the CSS doesn’t add those.
  • Blockquotes can have one paragraph or multiple.
  • The citation is optional, but don’t put the <cite> “—” (dash) in the HTML, it’s added automatically by the CSS.
<blockquote>"Quote" <cite>Citation</cite></blockquote>
Example of Blockquotes
With no paragraph tags, with cite tag

“This is a quote. Students like reading other student’s thoughts and opinions on the website.” Person who said the quote

With paragraph tags

“This is a quote with multiple paragraphs.”

“Students like reading other student’s thoughts and opinions on the website.”

Pullquotes

A pullquote is a quotation or excerpt from the content text. Most pullquotes on the PCC website are found in PCC News. A citation is optional (but recommended if relevant).

Styling

Pullquotes look like blockquotes, but are right-aligned, 50% width, and include a large quotation mark icon in the upper left.

Responsive behavior for Pullquotes

Pullquotes change to full-width on small screens.

Inline quotes

Using a true inline quote (HTML <q> tags) for citations is more accessible than simply using quotation marks.

Styling

Inline quotes look like regular text inside quotation marks.
