Thank you!
<em> has semantic meaning. If it's italics for some reason other than emphasis, then <i>text</i> is better.
Blockquote isn't really needed at all if it has a class setting margins, indents, padding, font etc. A <p class="whatever" is fine.

KISS principle. Don't multiply entities unless needed.
