There can be no doubt, none whatever, that education pays.

Notes

Contains paras, not text. Block quotes are usually indented and have no quotation marks. They are rare in Church magazines because of the narrow column width.

Marking in Microsoft Word

Use the BLOCK_preamble and BLOCK_para paragraph styles.
