I always loved browsing such posts on reddit, so thought I should make one on lemmy too

Edit: Usually these kind of posts only used to have excerpts from books or ancient proverbs, but now I am seeing a lot more quotes from shows/movies/games are also resonating with people. It's pretty cool to see.

FYI formatting those quotes as code makes them really hard to read, at least for me--the lines don't break, so I have to scroll the text to the right to get it to be visible. You'd probably be better off with a blockquote,

which would look more like this. That's done with a > at the start of the line

That's how they got after copy-pasting them. Fixed.
