Reply to comment by Shawnigmatic in [IMAGE] sometimes you just need to not care by Th3MysticArcher

This comment needs to be stickied in every post that has any sort of quote in it.

No single line, paragraph, page or even book will hold the secret to all of life. Quotes are meant to provoke thought not blindly be applied to life situations and then complain why it isn’t working. If you read a quote and your mind immediately goes to find use cases where the quote fails, you’re doing quotes wrong. Sure there is some horrible advice out there written in beautiful fonts, but this post isn’t one of them.

It did provoke thought and that thought was, "this is stupid."

It's just not true or useful advice, and it's needlessly antagonistic.
