Since <q> fails in IE, I'd probably use:

  <blockquote>
          <p><cite>I think Web Standards are excellent</cite></p>
          <p><strong>Ed Henderson</strong></p>
</blockquote>

That's visual styling there, not semantic! I would do the following:

<blockquote>
       <p><q>"I think Web Standards are excellent"</q></p>
       <cite>Ed Henderson</cite>
</blockquote>

q:before {
content:'';
}

q:after{
content:'';
}

This will ensure that users only see one set of quotation marks (I think).
