When I went away to college, my best friend and I wrote each other letters, and we always wrote quotes on the back of our envelopes. I've collected quotes for years and am always amazed how I keep finding and falling in love with new ones (or, new to me). Goodreads is an addictive source for quotes: type in any keyword, famous person, author or book and then sit back and enjoy.
Plus a few pretty random images from Pinterest, just to add some color.
