Do you want an ad hoc or a permanent change?

If permanent you can change org-quote's face attributes in your init.

I want permanent change. I have changed org-quote but it did not affect the coloring :-( – alper May 25 '23 at 09:36
Which theme are you using? – crocefisso May 25 '23 at 09:45
What does C-h o org-quote tell you? Did you activate org-fontify-quote-and-verse-blocks? – crocefisso May 25 '23 at 10:16
it says: ("#+begin_quote" nil '> n p n "#+end_quote" >) – alper May 25 '23 at 10:22
looks like org-fontify-quote-and-verse-blocks is not activated its nil – alper May 25 '23 at 10:23
I was using dracula theme: https://github.com/dracula/emacs – alper May 25 '23 at 10:27
Glad you managed to make it work. I was asking about the theme because some themes like Modus have specific variables to change color faces. – crocefisso May 25 '23 at 10:45
