I think the neatest books of collected quotes I have seen/read are Father Tim’s 2 books from the Mitford Series. Some of the quotes are scrawled in, some are neat, some are typewritten on scraps of paper and look like they are stuck in.
I myself kind of followed that example and I have 2 or maybe 3 different books of quotes going at the present. I never gave it much thought but I LOVE quotes and they are about anything, anything at all as long as the words touch some deep place in my being. A lot of mine are magazine clippings, some are written out of books, out of cards, off of all kinds of things that catch my eye. I am not a purist, I will lift a good from ANYWHERE I see one.
Be loose, write them in colors, all colors, all size markers and pens , CRAYONS, whatever you have when you read it, but always put them all together in the same place. Date them if you want and watch your life wander through the words across time.
