# text.quote

Words quoted from someone, set apart from the text around them: a pull quote in an article, a testimonial. Renders <blockquote>

Component: [`<Text>`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/components/text.md) · Renders: `<blockquote>` · Profile: [UI](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md)

## Example

<Text intent="text.quote">Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs.</Text>
```

## Choosing between neighbours

Find the row that describes your element, and use the intent on the right.

| If it is for… | Use |

| Words quoted from someone, set apart from the text around them: a pull quote in an article, a testimonial. Renders <blockquote> | `text.quote` (this page) |
| Running text | [`text.body`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/text/body.md) |
| Code or a command | [`text.code`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/text/code.md) |

## Connections

Declared in the registry, both directions. Where an intent is used in your own code is something check and the gallery see; this site has no app code.

## For registry authors

**Starter intents.** These are the intents `prongs add` puts in your registry, shown in this site’s theme. Yours are your own `registry.ts`: rename, restyle and add to them, and see them with `prongs add gallery`.

What this intent is built from and its entry in `components/prongs/registry.ts`. You only need this to change how it looks or to add an intent like it.
