A bash script to give you a random quote everytime you open your terminal. Add the following lines to your bashrc.

quotes.sh

# font color : green
color='\e[0;32m'

# font color : white
NC='\e[0m' 

getquote(){
    	num_online_quotes=9999
    	rand_online=$[ ( $RANDOM % $num_online_quotes ) + 1 ]
    	quote=$(wget -q -O - "http://www.quotationspage.com/quote/$rand_online.html" |
    	grep -e "<dt>" -e "</dd>" | awk -F'[<>]' '{ 
        	if($2 ~ /dt/)
        	{ print $3 } 
        	else if($4 ~ /b/)
        	{ print "-- " $7 "  n(" $19 ")"} 
     	}')
