What a purple 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 purple style shapes it

Purple widgets use lavender backgrounds, deep plum text and a bright violet accent. They look gentle in light tones and dramatic in dark ones.
