What a coquette quote widget shows

A quote widget is pure typography, so the style shows more clearly here than anywhere else. Line length, line spacing and the size of the quotation mark do the design work.

It is plain text you type yourself: free, offline and with no permission. Change the words whenever you like.

How the coquette style shapes it

Coquette widgets are delicate and romantic: ballet pink and cream, a deep rose for text, small ribbon bows, lace-like edges and an elegant italic serif.
