Occasionally you might want to wrap text around an icon or give it some visual distinction with a border.

Before You Get Started

Before we start, make sure you're:

• Set up with Font Awesome in your project.
• Familiar with the basics of adding Font Awesome icons.

Use fa-border and fa-pull-right or fa-pull-left for easy pull quotes or article icons.

  It eluded us then, but that’s no matter — tomorrow we will run faster, stretch our arms further...
  And one fine morning — So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.

Use fa-border in combination with fa-pull-right style for more visual separation.
