Good idea!
My main concern is with its readability, though. At first I tried to put the quote in the space below the name, but I couldn't get a color that looked decent and had enough contrast with the goldy-green of the pic, even with an edging, in that font.
So I made the black area and put the quote in it. I suppose if I made the scroll very pale I could pull it off.
But that gives me another idea...
