[XeTeX] enumerating quotations

[Wilfred van Rooijen]

Check out the amsthm package, the AMS Theorem package. It provides environments to make mathematical theorems, definitions, proofs, etc. You can set it up according to your own wishes and get numbered (and unnumbered if desired) "quotations" and I guess you can also use \ref if you put a \label in the theorem. And check the memoir manual - this sounds like a typical problem somebody else has also had, and I am fairly sure there is a standard solution.

Subject: [XeTeX] enumerating quotations
 
Hi,

I'm writing a book in which I quote a significant number of ancient texts. I'm using the \quote environment for this as usual. Now, I would like to have a numbered label to refer back to these quotations along the book. So, I would like the \quote environment to behave somehow like \figure so that the quote is auto-numbered and labels located inside \quote get also an automatic number. 

Does anybody how to do this?

I'm using memoir.
