Some of the places you could incorporate quotes into your planner:

• Monthly calendar (there’s usually a gap between the top of the boxes and the edge of the page)
• In the monthly or weekly sidebar
• In a spare box in your weekly spread
• Print out the list and glue it to a notes page (or use some washi tape to adhere it)
• Create a whole separate page with the quote in brush lettering (works well as a divider page for different sections in your notebook or planner)
• Write a new quote each week on a sticky note and keep it with your weekly spread
• Write quotes in the page margins
