<!-- EDIT TEMPLATE DOCUMENTATION BELOW THIS LINE -->
 
'''{{tl|Cquote}}''' is a template meant for [[pull-quote]]s, which stand apart from the text of a page. It generally should not be used in articles unless there is a good justification for doing so. Pull -quotes work best when used with short quotes, and at the start or end of a sectionssection, to help emphasisemphasize the content of the section. For shorter pull-quotes of 50 words or less in a similar style, consider using {{tl|Rquote}}.
 
'''NOTE''': This template should '''not be used''' for [[block quote]]s in article text. For long quotations in the text, the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Quotations|Manual of Style]] recommends using the HTML &lt;[[blockquote]]>&gt; element, such as through the use of the {{t1tl|quoteQuote}} template.

As much as I may dislike or want to reject that responsibility, this is something that comes with public success. It's important to give others a sense of hope that it is possible and you can come from really different places in the world and find your own place in the world that's unique for yourself.}}<!--This is a bad example, as it is illustrating use of the template in article text, not as a pull-quote!-->
