The minipage environment is similar to a
\parbox command. It takes
the same optional position argument and
mandatory width argument. You may use other paragraph-making
environments inside a minipage.
Footnotes in a minipage environment are handled in a way that is
particularly useful for putting footnotes in figures or tables. A
\footnote or
\footnotetext command puts the
footnote at the bottom of the minipage instead of at the
bottom of the page, and it uses the
mpfootnote counter instead of the ordinary footnote counter
NOTE: Don't put one minipage inside another if you are using footnotes; they may wind up at the bottom of the wrong minipage.
\begin{quotation}

\end{quotation}
The margins of the quotation environment are indented on the left and
the right. The text is justified at both margins and there is paragraph
indentation. Leaving a blank line between text produces a new
paragraph.
\begin{quote}

\begin{verbatim}

\end{verbatim}
The verbatim environment is a paragraph-making environment that gets
LaTeX to print exactly what you type in. It turns LaTeX into a
typewriter with carriage returns and blanks having the same effect that
they would on a typewriter.

\begin{verse}
text
\end{verse}
The verse environment is designed for poetry, though you may find
other uses for it.
The margins are indented on the left and the right. Separate the lines
of each stanza with \\, and use one or more blank lines to separate
the stanzas.
