Quotes are text-only blocks used for highlighting a quote from someone usually important to the story or a short sentence to grab the reader’s attention.

Bulleted lists are normally used to present related things that don’t need to appear in a particular order. Numbered lists are most often used to present sequential items like procedures, or prioritized items such as “Top 10” lists.  |
