Quote: I think some behaviors which may be considered arrogant can be justified. For example, dismissing other people’s opinions out of hand can be a good choice when actually surrounded by people with very low-quality opinions.
Note: to quote someone, you should place a “greater than” character before the quoted portion. (You can only quote solid paragraphs; if you want to quote across a line break, you’ll have to use the “greater than” character a second time.)
Ex. 1:
“> Hello.” (without the quotation marks)
becomes
Hello.
Ex. 2:
“> Hello”
“> World”
becomes
Hello
World
(Question for someone more experienced with Markdown than me: the backslash escape character apparently doesn’t work with the quote character. I had originally planned to use the backslash to escape the quote character, but it just showed up as “>”, so I was forced to use literal quotation marks instead, which I felt was quite inelegant, especially for a demonstration. Is this behavior intentional?)
