Here would be my suggestion, which gives a syntax that is a bit more
ConTeXt-like, I feel (but the coding can probably be improved):
\def\startQuote%
{\dosingleempty\dostartQuote}
\def\dostartQuote[#1]%
{\blank [line]
\iffirstargument
\getparameters[QQ][note=oops,#1]
\def\stopQuote{\footnote{\QQnote}\stopnarrower\blank [line]}%
\else
\def\stopQuote{\stopnarrower\blank [line]}
\fi
\setupnarrower [left=1cm,right=2cm]
\startnarrower}
\starttext
\input zapf
\startQuote
\input tufte
\stopQuote
\startQuote[note=Knuth]
\input knuth
\stopQuote
\stoptext
