You can see all the quotes here - http://www.minimotivation.com/quotes.php Would you like to see it in a different format?

How about a simple voting mechanism which will display more popular quotes more frequently?

I like the idea of voting to show how much people like a certain item, but if you use it to influence the rotation, in the long run you'll keep seeing the same content over and over.

Let users submit their own quotes.

Make it so that I can click the content instead of scrolling down to click a small link lost in a corner.

Funny, I didn't even notice that link until several F5s later. Nevertheless, yours is a good suggestion.

It would be great to be able to adjust the font size...?

Probably not the solution you are looking for, but you can always use your browser to zoom out or make the text smaller.

You're right, I forgot that firefox remembers the zoom level for each page and when I go to another page/link in the same tab, the zoom level goes normal again. Good job FF.

Awesome site, I absolutely love it. The only problem is that there isn't enough quotes, I think you should add a lot more.

I collect quotes and have quite a collection of good ones. Here are my favorite quotes, a lot of them would fit great on minimotivation.com:

I like the site, nice and simple.

My only question is where do the quotes come from? I hit f5 too fast before noticing one of the quotes was by "Heywood Jablowme"
