I am having problems with formatting, I was helped in figuring out how to do block quotes but it makes the test larger and stand out; it can be seen here: http://wparlortricks.com/2016/02/08/white-castle/

I am wondering how to fix this formatting issue.

Hi there, try this:
```
blockquote p {
	font-family: inherit !important;
	text-indent: 0em !important;
	font-size: inherit !important;
}

blockquote br {
	line-height: 3em;
}
```
You can remove the styles you don’t like, but that basically forces it to use the default font and font size.

It also takes away that paragraph indent you added, since this section is not different paragraphs. And it also gives a little extra space between line breaks.

Want to give it a try?

@parlortricksmag, let’s be a bit more specific on the CSS selector. I’ve tried this and it works.
```
.entry-content blockquote p {
    font-family: inherit;
    font-size: inherit;
}
.entry-content blockquote br {
	line-height: 3em;
}
```
If you can let us know what you are wanting the blockquotes to look like, we can help you achieve that.
