https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/sear... 1st example (most pop) is the correct one.

https://www.goodreads.com/photo/user/... 1st paragraph has correct wording

Ayshe | 3084 comments If you're certain that the other variants don't exist, you can do that yourself, too.

From authors quotes: https://www.goodreads.com/author/quot... click "Combine Quotes" (upper right corner) and tick the boxes of the ones you want to merge, click "combine quotes" and confirm (they'll merge into the most popular one).

If some are rejected because they are not similar enough then edit them and try again.

wow. that is not an enjoyable job. hunting through 200+ quotes. I can do it, just saying.

Ayshe | 3084 comments :) at least the combine page can be loaded with ~200 quotes. I use "Ctrl + F" for the browser search to appear and then type whatever word/combination of words I'm looking for.
