Paragraphs, line breaks, and quoting
------------------------------------
Paragraphs are separated by at least one empty line. If you need to
enforce a line break within a paragraph, use ‘\\’ at the end of a line.
To keep the line breaks in a region, but otherwise use normal
formatting, you can use this construct, which can also be used to format
poetry.
#+BEGIN_VERSE
Great clouds overhead
Tiny black birds rise and fall
Snow covers Emacs
-- AlexSchroeder
#+END_VERSE
When quoting a passage from another document, it is customary to
format this as a paragraph that is indented on both the left and the
right margin. You can include quotations in Org mode documents like
this:
#+BEGIN_QUOTE
Everything should be made as simple as possible,
but not any simpler -- Albert Einstein
#+END_QUOTE
If you would like to center some text, do it like this:
#+BEGIN_CENTER
Everything should be made as simple as possible, \\
but not any simpler
#+END_CENTER
