This is a very nice packaging of a kindle hack I've seen several years ago [1]. Previous discussion: [2] You can point your kindle web browser at this website:

  I made https://literature-clock.jenevoldsen.com/ https://literature-clock.jenevoldsen.com/ It is based upon a Kindle project [1] and initially I just used the quote library from that project (which is based on a crowd-sourced collection of quotes by The Guardian [2]). Later, a lot of quotes have been added by kind strangers through GitHub issues and pull-requests [3].

    The quote list is pretty cool, I wonder if there are other languages available?

      There is this fork which has a few different languages and some other cool features. I believe the non-english quotes are mostly machine translations of the quotes in my repo. https://literatureclock.netlify.app/?locale=pt-BR https://literatureclock.netlify.app/?locale=pt-BR
