Subject: Defining content for re-use

Hi!

I wonder if it is possible to define parts of content and "bind" it
to a reference which can be inserted multiple times.

In LaTeX, I am using:

,----[ LaTeX example ]
| \newcommand{\mycontent}{This is some content containing lists,
| headings, and much more which is defined once and pops up in my end
| document multiple times.}
|
| \chapter{First Chapter}
|
| \mycontent
|
| [...]
|
| \chapter{Last Chapter}
|
| Once again, I would like to state \mycontent
`----

So can this be done with Org-mode (and TeX export) as well?


Very vaguely I'd say this would look like:

,----[ Org-mode example guess ]
| #+NAME: mycontent
| #+BEGIN_QUOTE
| This is some content...
| #+END
|
| My content which is #+insert:mycontent can be used multiple times.
| Here we go again: #+insert:mycontent
`----
