just for kicks, I ran that through Chrome to see how bad a page of magenta
text would look, and discovered that none of the quotes are marked up with
blockquote. They're all just standard paragraphs. I would recommend starting
by marking them up properly, with <blockquote> and <q> as appropriate.
That'll make them much easier to select for styling.
As an aside, what on earth are all those <br> tags after your paragraphs for?
I'd leave them out, and use margins on the paragraphs to create the same
effect.
As far as styling quotes, I don't know that I would. They make up so much of
the content of the page that if they had a different style from the rest of it,
it would either be too much, or make the rest of the page look out of place.
