Examples

<p>She then said, <q>See you around, kiddo!</q></p>

This example shows that the q element can have child elements.

<p>Chicken Little: <q>The sky is falling…
the sky is falling… <em>the sky is falling!</em></q></p>

Usage

 The q should be used to denote short, inline quotes that do not need a paragraph of their own.

For longer quotes, please use the blockquote element.
