An example of using CSS in your document
To me style is just the outside of content, and content the inside of style, like the outside and the inside of the human body, both go together, they can't be separated.
-- Jean-Luc Godard, French filmmaker and author

This document is an example of styling blockquotes for quotations, or just highlighting specific areas in text.
Here is the CSS used in this document:
blockquote {
border: 3px double #AAAAAA;
font-family: Georgia;
padding: 15px 15px 15px 100px;
margin: 0 80px;
background-image: url('File?id=ad8wdwbvms_887fk6jk2hh_b');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
You will need to add the blockquote tag to the HTML itself for this example. You can do this by going to Edit > Edit HTML from the menu. In the HTML you can add:
<blockquote>To be or not to be: that is the question.</blockquote>
