| Welcome to the Quote Books
All five in all their glory...
|
The quote books are a force to be reckoned with.
They began one day in Sixth Form History, when Bushfire & I were practicing footnotes. I don't have those pieces of paper any more, but it was stupid stuff like "Hello", with little numbers and things everywhere.
From there it spiralled, and we all started writing down stupid stuff in the back of my organiser. Quoting movies and whatnot. The whole objective was to give a voice, as it were, to quotes that have never been quotable. The neglected ones.
"Romeo" - Romeo & Juliet
Where do you ever see that quoted? Nowhere.
However, as the book became more full of funny things we had heard, mostly the inane ramblings of ourselves, the book changed. No longer did we quote the un-quotable. The quote books were now...funny! They were now...useful! And so they have continued on from Sixth Form until the present day.
They are, in chronological order:
