What software would you recommend for organizing thousand of quotes?
The quotes would have to be able to be sorted by date, author and multiple types/categories.
Would you recommend a straightforward relational database or another tool?
Thanks

Depends on how long the quotes are and what kind of analysis you need to do with the attributes—but you might not need a database. Excel or Numbers or Open Office should be able to handle a fairly robust single-table sort of approach.

ConnectedText would be great for this.

upon further thought, PiggyDB would also be a good choice for this, and is free/open source.

I agree that Connected Text would be fine for this job. But there are so many possible factors that might influence what the best application would be, so I’ll suggest that you also look into Zoot and/or UltraRecall and/or MyInfo.
