Quotation source

Quarkdown allows a blockquote to have a citation source.

In general, if the quote ends with a single-item unordered list, that list item is set as the citation source. You can specify the source using any of the supported unordered list bullets: -, *, +, although using - is recommended.

Example 1

> To be, or not to be, that is the question.
> - William Shakespeare

To be, or not to be, that is the question.
