The toggle way (in the visual editor) is: click BQ icon after a paragraph change, write quotation, click BQ icon again after a paragraph change.

I never know how it will work until I've tried it. Then all I have to do is hope I remember by the time I use it again.

Pleasant dreams aw1923.

When you are done with the quote hit return/enter to get a new line and then click the quote button again an it will terminate the quote. The behavior of this button has changed back and forth as new upgrades and come and gone.

To end a blockquote, you go to the end of the blockquote, press enter twice or you could simply goto the html editor and start typing and then in the visual editor you will see that it automatically ends the blockquote. This might sound confusing, but I hope this helps.
