Thanks to Highland Media

When I went looking for an easy way to put random quotes into my web pages, here is the web page I found (Now at Archive.org). I liked Server-Side Includes and perl, which is why I chose this script. Highland Media is ~~still~~ no longer around, but they no longer support the script or make it available for download.
(With permission) I am making the script available here.
Here is the distribution Download in zip format: quote.zip
And here is the Additional Quote File with Dhamapada quotes (teachings of the Buddha): dhamapd.zip
There are also some more small quote files in text format still available from the page at Archive.org. That page also explains the script operation.
Here is a quote test page that shows several quotes at once.
Disclaimer: I do not provide any formal support for the script. I may be able to give some informal help as time permits. By downloading you agree to hold me, Highland Media, the author or any agent of Highland Media harmless of any damages directly or indirectly caused by the use of this or any free script.

Quote of the moment

... [Washington] is always an entertaining spectacle. Look at it now. The present President has the name of Roosevelt, marked facial resemblance to Wilson, and no perceptible aversion, to say the least, to many of the policies of Bryan. The New Deal, which at times seems more like a pack of cards thrown helter skelter, some face up, some face down, and then snatched in a free-for-all by the players, than it does like a regular deal, is going on before our interested, if puzzled eyes.

~ Alice Roosevelt Longworth (1884–1980), U.S. socialite; daughter and cousin of U.S. Presidents. Crowded Hours, ch. 21 (1933).

Longworth’s distant cousin, Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882-1945), was beginning the first of his three-plus terms as President. “New Deal” was his label for his domestic reform program. ~
