Please switch out quote by Neil Gaiman

One of the really great things about CrossInk is the Minimal UI theme. It's the best! :)

I also like that it shows a quote about books if you have not opened any yet. If I understand correctly it chooses among at least two, maybe a few more, quotes. One of these are by Neil Gaiman. It's a very logical quote to use, as it's about books and holding them in your hand. But unfortunately Gaiman has done some really bad stuff, and seeing that CI comes with a quote by him gives me a bad feeling – even though the quote is totally fine in itself. I have thankfully never been sexually assaulted, so I can only imagine that those who have might feel even worse about seeing it than me.

I would appreciate it a lot if you could remove this quote. Maybe add another quote about books, there are so many to choose from. Here are some. If you don't have time to look trough them I'd be happy to suggest some for you :)

Thank you so much!

Ooh, I had no idea who he was, I just liked the quote lol but sure I can swap it out. There are 5 quotes that are randomly selected from. Here are the others. Are we cool with these authors?

    {"I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library.", "Jorge Luis Borges"},
    {"A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies. The man who never reads lives only one.",
     "George R.R. Martin"},
    {"So many books, so little time.", "Frank Zappa"},
    {"If you only read the books that everyone else is reading, you can only think what everyone else is thinking.", "Haruki Murakami"},

Thank you kindly! Yes, none of these authors has been credibly accused of SA or done anything else horrendous, as far as I can tell :)

Also: Great quotes! The love not just for books, but also libraries, is highly appreciated! :D

If I could make a suggestion for a replacement:

“What can be better than to get out a book on Saturday afternoon and thrust all mundane considerations away till next week?” The Collected Letters of C. S. Lewis
