Cool business idea, but does it involve copyright infringement?

Hey everyone -

So I got an idea for a business. It would be to create T-shirts with quotes attributed to famous people that they never actually said. The quotes would be funny. It's really just a fun side-business. Not my main one.

So, a shirt would have a quote, and then the person's name.

Any copyright infringement there?

What if that included a picture?

Plus, this might include historical figures that are now long dead. Or it could also include contemporary figures like sports stars.

Can I use their names and pictures without legal permission?

Please show me how US copyright law does or does not apply in this situation. Thanks,

Dan
