Thanks for the caution.
I rarely use footnotes, and can’t imagine putting a quote in one, so I think
I’m okay.

Richard,
Thanks for the tip.
The line \parsep\parskip% didn’t work. It removed all spacing between my
quote paragraphs.
But, I combined your suggestion with some other things I’ve tried and came up
with the following that worked:
\renewenvironment{quote}
{\list{}{%
\rightmargin\leftmargin%
\setlength{\parsep}{1em}}%
\item\relax}
{\endlist}
The only downside to this is that it will do the wrong thing if you have quotes
in footnotes: The skip will be too big. But if it works for now, that's fine.
