Fit
What it suits and where it falls short
You type
Short quotes read better than long ones
Best for: A sentence someone said that is the story itself.
Works well for
- Interview highlights
- Statements from officials or coaches
- Lines from a speech
- Reader comments, with the reader’s permission
Watch out for
- Quote only words that were said, exactly as they were said; the layout makes them look official.
- At 4:5 the quote sits in a narrow column: about 90 characters fit at full size, and 200 characters take 13 lines.
- Without the speaker’s name and role, a quote reads as the page’s own opinion.
