How to keep a meaningful book of quotes/lyrics
How I did it: I listened to what people were saying, took in every word in every book and every movie and basically was just constantly looking out for quotes subconciously, then I'd write them either in my journal or if I REALLY like the quote they get displayed in my bedroom. Everyone needs quotes in their life ;)
Lessons & tips: Just keep listening to people.
Resources: books, people to talk to, a journal, a pen, ears, the internet
