Blockquotes

Single line blockquote:

Stay hun­gry. Stay foolish.

Multi line block­quote with a cite reference:

People think focus means say­ing yes to the thing you’ve got to focus on. But that’s not what it means at all. It means say­ing no to the hun­dred oth­er good ideas that there are. You have to pick care­ful­ly. I’m actu­al­ly as proud of the things we haven’t done as the things I have done. Innovation is say­ing no to 1,000 things.

Steve Jobs – Apple Worldwide Developers’ Conference, 1997
