Undoubtedly a hoax. Such a signature appears under only two quotes - this one and about a man who drowned while crossing a river 6 inches deep. The earlier citation presumably dates back to the mid-1990s. In addition, the sound of the author’s name coincides with the German expression Wie geht’s, which means “How are you?” Looks like someone decided to fabricate a quote.

You see, the real path is never a straight line. This is not a car ride to the Numbana fair. There is no forward movement, no destination to arrive at. It's much more like walking along the ocean in a storm. One wave knocks you off your feet and carries you out to sea, and another throws you ashore. There is no goal, no Numbana, no fair - nothing! Only your stupid, risky walk and the merciless waves that carry you along with them, and at that moment, when it begins to seem to you that you have already become comfortable in the ocean, they are thrown ashore again, and you understand that everything needs to start all over again. Are you saying everything comes back? The way it is. But don’t panic, guy: over time you will understand that every time we are thrown onto the other shore, and we start from some other “beginning”...
Max Fry. Chatty Dead

Quotes are wonderful because they are able to convey many complex life situations in one phrase. We know many quotes by heart, but there are some that are better to write down and re-read every time a difficulty arises in life. A good quote reveals different sides every time you look at it.

Many people confuse aphorisms and quotes. They are similar in that in their small volume they convey the depth of human wisdom. An aphorism is a truth contained in a few words. That is, when you pronounce an aphorism, you are speaking folk wisdom. But a quote is an excerpt from a book, or from something said by someone. When you quote someone, you agree with the author's point of view without making any predictions about the depths of human wisdom. However, an aphorism may well be a quotation and this introduces a little confusion in concepts.

So, what are the main benefits of collecting quotes?

Quotes instantly transform your mood

Quotes allow you to recognize new smart people

Of course, quotes cannot replace reading books. Some people generally believe that being interested in quotes is an activity for the lazy. However, this is the case when a person reads only quotes in his life.

When we consider Einstein to be a brilliant physicist, it narrows our opinion of him, but when we read his quotes, it allows us to treat him completely differently. It’s the same with many other people: quotes allow us to rediscover them.

Quotes get to the heart of things

Quotes contain a huge concentration of knowledge and experience expressed in one phrase. Although the quote may seem too simple and obvious, in reality it takes incredible work to express complex things in simple words, to capture the essence.

It is very valuable when a person takes an idea that you have been thinking about for a long time and expresses it in a simple and understandable phrase. You can rely on this quote in a discussion or in your creativity, as a basis, as a cornerstone thought. In addition, the quote itself can become a springboard for an interesting discussion.

Quotes allow you to better recognize other people and yourself

They say that you can tell about any person by what books he reads and with whom he is friends. If so, then from the list of quotes that the person has collected, even more can be said. There is a lot to debate about the book because it carries dozens of layers of understanding, whereas the quote is clearer and clearer in comparison.

You can draw certain conclusions about a person based on his musical preferences, so why can’t quotes contribute to this? Some quotes lean towards pathos, others towards logic and consistency, while others are completely filled with cynicism and dislike for humanity.

Accordingly, if you often think about what you really are, re-read the list of your favorite quotes and draw a conclusion about yourself as an outsider.

Quotes provide a different perspective.

You can collect quotes that completely contradict your worldview (for this reason, little can be said about you based on such a list).

For example, an essay is usually constructed by building a point of view step by step. If an essay idea contradicts your point of view, the natural reaction will be to reject it. However, you need to read an essay to the end (for example, for school or work), so your brain builds a mental wall while reading. But with a quote it is much simpler: even if it contradicts your point of view, we can accept it, and the brain will not have time to build a wall. This will ultimately allow you to become a more well-rounded person.

Start building your collection

The Internet provides dozens of ways to collect anything, including quotes. For example, GoogleKeep and Trello are great for this purpose. There are services created specifically for quotes - huge repositories of human wisdom, where you can save individual phrases especially for yourself.

A great way is to keep a journal and write down quotes by hand. This will allow you to play with the format, add images and express yourself.
