ActionScript 2.0 :: Choosing Quote To Display - List In Text File?

I am using this random code below to choose a quote to display and I want to move the quotes list to a text file.

Code:
quotes = [Fish are the last to recognize water.","I am my brains publisher.", "Every tool carries with it the spirit by which it has been created.","Curiosity is the mother of intelligence.","Thinking is drawing in your head.","A person without imagination is like a teabag without water.","Realism is a corruption of reality.","Its always better to be looked over than to be overlooked.","The hardest thing to see is what is in front of your eyes.","The soul has no secrets that conduct does not reveal.","Creativity is the defeat of habit by originality.","Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.","If you want to get lucky... it pays to get ready" ,"Realism is the corruption of reality","I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous.","Music is noise submitted to order by wisdom.","God...invented the giraffe,the elephant,the cat.He has no real style.He just goes on inventing things.","The person you love is 72.8% water."]

qNum = Math.floor(riddles.length*Math.random());
partThree = quotes[qNum];
mainTxt = """+partThree+""";
