Question A simple quotes organizer


Hey guys,

I'm looking for a way to organize and manage my quotes but found noting, neither for Linux nor Android.
I have several text files but it's very messy.
I've also considered to make a MongoDB database but I'm not sure if it's worthy to go in that. Need a GUI in this case too anyway.
So, to me the ideal would be to have an application dedicated for this purpose, organize quotes.
Do you have any suggestion?

Thank you.

How about a spread sheet? You could have columns for the quotation, the source, speaker, date, subject, tags, and the like--whatever you wish. They could be color-coded, sorted, searched, and manipulated in a myriad of ways.

Thank you guys,

I found s solution today but will try to use a spreadsheet is it doesn't work well.
I discovered NeighborNote which run better than NixNOte and can connect to my EverNote account (Nixnote couldn't on my machine).
Anyway, I'll use notes to keep and synchronize them for a while and see if it's satisfying.
I'm still not sure how I want to manage them.

Thanks again.
