Past homepage quotes, all in one pile

Staff picks the quote. Then it sits on top of a homepage text box until the next one knocks it off. Three or four a day. Madison and Tesla next to Casablanca and Black Hawk Down. Sgt K, Alex, Beth, Ben, Sgt Pat, Lisa, Luke, Preacher — whoever is on the board that shift. This is the pile so we don’t run the same line twice, and so you can steal one for the fridge, the shop wall, or the argument you keep losing at dinner. Scroll it. Bookmark it. Come back when you need a line that still has a spine.
