I like that! Any typefaces you would propose in particular? Not sure if you noticed, but we've used two typefaces on the current version of the site: Adobe Caslon Pro and Proxima Nova.

Design/typography isn't my thing. I couldn't tell you much about them, but I would imagine you'd like to have some sort of interesting collage of quotes where the typefaces complimented each other. That's probably the most important aspect, typefaces that wouldn't clash.

I'll have to defer you to someone else who knows more about these things, but you should definitely ask around!

We did think of having a tiles view and overlaying the quotes over images. Knowing which images to combine quotes with may be an issue!

use the google open fonts.
