Tailwind CSS Blockquote
The blockquote component can be used to quote text content from an external source that can be used for testimonials, reviews, and quotes inside an article
Get started with a collection of blockquote components when quoting external sources such as quotes inside an article, user reviews, and testimonials based on multiple examples of layouts, styles, and contexts.
The main <blockquote> HTML tag can be used together with the <cite> tag or attribute to also mention the source of the quote content.
