Using an
element for quotations is sometimes more convenient than
entering the quotation marks directly, and makes it possible for
a presentation system to alter the format of the quotation
marks.
Block quotations are properly identified as
BlockQuotes.
Formatted inline.
The Quote element is expected to generate
the proper quotation marks. These may be influenced by the
Lang attribute on an ancestor element.

a quote in French might use «guillments» instead of
English “quote marks.”
