Dev Quotes API

Like every person out there an IT Person (regardless of dev, qa, scrum master, project manager, devops etc) needs a moment a day to relax after the x number of WTFs that they have in a day.

Sometimes hearing/reading some words of wisdom does help.

With this in my I made a little API for IT Quotes. Collection still in progress, feel free to write to me any new quotes and lets make this API have the biggest number of IT Quotes ever

P.S. Have to add about 200 good quotes more, just have not found the time.

Hi,
I've see your API. Why did you no add some API in order to get just one quote or a random one? Or better using a filter ?

i.e.

 .../quotes/{ID}

or

 .../random-quote/

Now there are just 200 quotes (few) but they can grow in number and can be tedious to retrieve all of them and not "scale". Instead using a filter or an API to retrieve just one selected quote (by id) it can be useful.
