3 Ways to Make Yourself Quotable on Social Media - Everyone loves a great quote that can distill pages of text into one pithy line or two, which is perfect for the bite-size posts shared on social media, says award-winning author and college teacher Daniel L. Wick.There is no shortage of websites devoted to some of the best quotes in history; unfortunately, they're usually coupled with a modicum of spam-y advertising links that easily distract from a profound message, he says. "Many quotes are aphorisms, or epigrams, or have the qualities of an epigram," Wick says. "Epigrams and aphorisms are both original thoughts that are usually concise and memorable; they're brief, usually witty, occasionally profound observations on life, love, death, philosophy, religion and virtually everything else." It's great that more folks are exposed to nuggets of wisdom from Mark Twain, Oscar Wilde and George Carlin, but that doesn't mean that you, too, can't provide your own original perspective, says Wick, author of the new book, "An Epidemic of Epigrams or an Avalanche of Aphorisms,". Daniel L. Wick is an international award-winning author of books, articles and plays. He holds a Ph.D. in history from the University of California and has taught at the college level for more than 30 years. He and his wife live in the San Francisco Bay Area. http://tinyurl.com/pzsqnza.
