Selection policy
Each quote is chosen because it can stand up to a few basic editorial tests. It needs a credible attribution, a clear meaning,
and enough cultural or historical significance to justify preserving it in a public archive.
The site avoids turning every phrase into its own thin destination page. Instead, it keeps the archive compact and adds context
where context helps the reader understand why a quote matters.
Attribution standards
Misattributed sayings spread easily online. That is why the archive excludes many famous-but-dubious lines and labels proverbs
as proverbs when no single historical author is appropriate.
This is an editorial judgment, not a claim of perfect completeness. When uncertainty remains, the site should be conservative
rather than overconfident.
Reader experience
The site is intentionally lightweight. Navigation is limited, sections are clearly labeled, and the main page answers what the
site offers without forcing users through extra clicks.
Advertising, when shown, is meant to support the archive. It should not crowd out the text or create confusion about what is
editorial content and what is advertising.
What will improve this site further
The next meaningful improvements would be adding a real contact address, publishing more original commentary for each entry,
and expanding the archive only when each addition improves the collection instead of diluting it.
