Could anyone create "I love Wikiquote" banner(s) and the blank ones as well as other sisters? Only Wikiquote and Wikispecies lack their own banners currently ... and it somehow helps to increase our beloved Wikiquote visibility not only its mother organization ...
I'd like to consider something more Wikiquote-specific if we could. Commons has a button:

that has the text: "It's all about freedom / Support Wikimedia Commons". Perhaps we could do something similar? Here's are two possibilities based on quotes from a 19th-century collection:
"Quotation is the highest compliment / Support Wikiquote" * Samuel Johnson; quoted in Edwards, Tryon, "The World's Laconics: Or, The Best Thoughts of the Best Authors" (1853), p. 232: "Quotation is the highest compliment you can pay to an author."
"A community of mind / Support Wikiquote" * Unidentified (possibly Johnson); quoted in Edwards, "World's Laconics", p. 232: "Quotation, sir, is a good thing; there is a community of mind in it..."
Any other ideas?
