As an alternative to external css file you could use css code chunk:

---
title: "Example"
date: "`r Sys.time()`"
output: html_document
---

```{css style settings, echo = FALSE}
blockquote {
    padding: 10px 20px;
    margin: 0 0 20px;
    font-size: 14px;
    border-left: 5px solid #eee;
}
```

Now quotes will be as you wish
