The quotes come from quotes.dat in data directory.  They are basically separated by * on an otherwise blank line.  The first line is a * then each is separated by a *. 

Its not really documented because I was planning to redo it in A48 but I completely forgot.

For example:

*
This is sample Mystic BBS quote #1.
*
This is sample Mystic BBS quote #2.
*
This is sample Mystic BBS quote #3.
