Quote[0] = "<p class=\"quote\">The bicycle, the bicycle surely, should always be the vehicle of novelists and poets.</p><p class=\"author\"> ~Christopher Morley</p>";
Quote[1] = "<p class=\"quote\">The bicycle is a curious vehicle.  Its passenger is its engine.</p><p class=\"author\">  ~John Howard</p>";
Quote[2] = "<p class=\"quote\">It would not be at all strange if history came to the conclusion that the perfection of the bicycle was the greatest incident of the nineteenth century.</p><p class=\"author\">  ~Author Unknown</p>";
Quote[3] = "<p class=\"quote\">Tens of thousands who could never afford to own, feed and stable a horse, had by this bright invention enjoyed the swiftness of motion which is perhaps the most fascinating feature of material life.</p><p class=\"author\">  ~Frances Willard</p>";
Quote[4] = "<p class=\"quote\">The bicycle is the most civilized conveyance known to man.  Other forms of transport grow daily more nightmarish.  Only the bicycle remains pure in heart.</p><p class=\"author\">  ~Iris Murdoc</p>";
Quote[5] = "<p class=\"quote\">When man invented the bicycle he reached the peak of his attainments.  Here was a machine of precision and balance for the convenience of man.  And (unlike subsequent inventions for man's convenience) the more he used it, the fitter his body became.  Here, for once, was a product of man's brain that was entirely beneficial to those who used it, and of no harm or irritation to others.  Progress should have stopped when man invented the bicycle.</p><p class=\"author\">  ~Elizabeth West</p>";
Quote[6] = "<p class=\"quote\">When I see an adult on a bicycle, I do not despair for the future of the human race.</p><p class=\"author\">  ~H.G. Wells</p>";
Quote[7] = "<p class=\"quote\">When I go biking, I repeat a mantra of the day's sensations:  bright sun, blue sky, warm breeze, blue jay's call, ice melting and so on.  This helps me transcend the traffic, ignore the clamorings of work, leave all the mind theaters behind and focus on nature instead.  I still must abide by the rules of the road, of biking, of gravity.  But I am mentally far away from civilization.  The world is breaking someone else's heart.</p><p class=\"author\">  ~Diane Ackerman</p>";
Quote[8] = "<p class=\"quote\">For instance, the bicycle is the most efficient machine ever created:  Converting calories into gas, a bicycle gets the equivalent of three thousand miles per gallon.</p><p class=\"author\">  ~Bill Strickland";
Quote[9] = "<p class=\"quote\">A bicycle does get you there and more.... And there is always the thin edge of danger to keep you alert and comfortably apprehensive.  Dogs become dogs again and snap at your raincoat; potholes become personal.  And getting there is all the fun.</p><p class=\"author\">  ~Bill Emerson</p>";
Quote[10] = "<p class=\"quote\">Melancholy is incompatible with bicycling.</p><p class=\"author\"> ~James E. Starrs</p>";
Quote[11] = "<p class=\"quote\">The bicycle had, and still has, a humane, almost classical moderation in the kind of pleasure it offers.  It is the kind of machine that a Hellenistic Greek might have invented and ridden.  It does no violence to our normal reactions:  It does not pretend to free us from our normal environment.</p><p class=\"author\">  ~J.B. Jackson</p>";
