Long A: The Quote Garden began in 1987 when I was 13 years old and read The Scarlet Letter. As I was reading, I noticed some sentences that I really liked and wrote them on a notepad as I went along. And that is where my passion for quotations began. From then on I obsessively wrote down any short excerpts I liked and kept my collection on paper and in WordStar for CP/M as well as turning my favorites into amateur mini-posters and taping them to my bedroom walls. In early 1998 I began sharing my collection with the world by starting a site on GeoCities and learning HTML. Both the site and my obsession for quotes grew quickly with this new platform for sharing. I moved to quotegarden.com in 2001 and continue to this very day maintaining the site by typing every quote and piece of code from scratch into Notepad, and carrying paper and pen with me everywhere I go in case I see anything quotable! Believe it or not, I have yet to finish placing my entire collection online, there are still thousands of quote-scribbled scraps of paper here and there, torn-edged articles with highlighting, etc which I will eventually get around to posting.
