Quotes vs arguments

I don't like quotes. I rather prefer well-developed arguments. Look up my entire profile since 2008 and you won't find a single quote, except one by Nietzsche, which isn't really a quote but an existential question, and another by Malalai, which is an argument.

Quotes weigh more, or entirely, on the fame, sacredness or charisma of the subject of attribution, and hence, they are trying to make people regard them with reverence, awe, and respect, than to genuinely prove an accuracy or truthfulness.

Arguments are faceless, heartless, respectless, string of reasonings being developed into the shape of an opinion, which is accumulated on the previously proved opinions (theorem). Unlike arrogance of quotes, modesty is a virtue of arguments', which is the result of it, whereas errors are always probable during the course of reasoning
