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.

      Just FYI, that quote from your girlfriend is not original. Good one though. I believe originally it’s, “Better a bitter truth than a sweet lie,” but I’m not sure who said it first.

        I figured, I was trying to look up where it originally came from, but couldn’t find it.
