Bash Clean Message of the Day!

A simple, clean opening message of the day that displays the operating system version, date, and a quote of the day. The quotes can be edited in the /quotes direcotry. Below is an example of what your terminal can look like as well. I used the tool jp2a by cslarsen (https://github.com/cslarsen/jp2a) to create an ascii image of the ubuntu logo and the ascii image is avialable in the /ascii folder. The current code has been updated to center the message depending on any terminal screen size. It was a fun little project to introduce myself to bash scripting. Thank you for checking out my project!

Example:
                            __  ____                __           ___   ____   ____  __ __
                           / / / / /_  __  ______  / /___  __   |__ \ / __ \ / __ \/ // /
                          / / / / __ \/ / / / __ \/ __/ / / /   __/ // / / // / / / // /_
                         / /_/ / /_/ / /_/ / / / / /_/ /_/ /   / __// /_/ // /_/ /__  __/
