Here is an idea of how to store the notable item with its image name in a mutable list:
val items : MutableList<String> = NotableItem( )
items.addItem("Quote from Albert Einstein,einstein.jpg")
items.addItem("Quote from Elvis Presley",elvis.jpg")
// etc.
Then when you are ready to use getItem to get a Random item, you can do this:
var comboString : String = items.getItem( )
var comboList : MutableList<String> = info.split(',');
var item = comboList[0]
var arrayIndex = comboList[1].toInt( )
You could also create a new class Item with instance variables item : String and arrayIndex : Int.
