It's only "sort of" a bug.  It's actually a result of a feature that is now 
obsolete.  If the quotations tiddler is empty or missing, the plugin tries 
to look for locally stored image files, using the specified name as a 
relative file path.  This allowed the plugin to retrieve a random picture 
from the indicated folder, instead of a random line of text from a tiddler.

Unfortunately, the file I/O functions needed to do the local directory 
listing lookup are no longer supported by the browser, so it throws the 
error you see.

The workaround is obvious: just make sure the tiddler you specify exists, 
and is not empty.
