That would be using the "quotes" property, right? Unfortunately, it appears "quotes" is not supported in the current ePUB spec.

Another problem: How does it work with multi-paragraph quotes? I believe the usual English practice is to add an opening quote character before each new paragraph, while in Spanish it's the closing quote. And verses or letters inside a quoted text?
