Hi there,

    position: relative;
    padding-top: 70px;
}
blockquote:before {
    content: "\201d";
    font-family: symbol;
    font-size: 120px;
    font-style: normal;
    position: absolute;

In your CSS you need to include:

blockquote {
    border-left: 5px solid #01b1cd;
    background-color: #1a1a1a;
    color: #ffffff;
    border-radius: 1px;
    /* Add the following properties */
    position: relative;
    padding-top: 70px; 
}

Hmmm… not seeing it on my browsers – but those HTML symbols are a pain.
Do you have an image of the quote symbol we could add in its place?

Try this:

blockquote {
    border-left: 5px solid #01b1cd;
    background-color: #1a1a1a;
    color: #ffffff;
    border-radius: 1px;
    padding-top: 50px;
}

blockquote:before {
    content: '';
    display: block;
    width: 40px;
    height: 40px;
    background-image: url( https://marketingconteudo.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/writer.svg);
    background-size: contain;
    margin-top: 10px;
}
