Here i am sharing very useful trick for stylizing the blockquote text. You can change the CSS for your blockquote to change it according to your desire. Like you can change the background color of quoted text, style, font color, font size, margins, padding etc...

What you have to do is to follow these steps;

1. Goto Bogger dashboard and then Template > Edit HTML
2. Click on "Expand Widget Templates"

Then find this text;

.blockquote

.post blockquote

.post-body blockquote

You will see there text just like this;

.post blockquote {
margin:1em 20px;
}
.post blockquote p {
margin:.75em 0;
}

Now in the Area of post blockquote or post-body blockquote change the code as in the given styles below;
