      The quote "great minds think alike" is actually a shortening of the correct quote "Great minds think alike, but fools seldom differ" which is ironic because you typically use "great minds think alike" to spur on an idea simply because someone shares it, but the original intention of the quote is the direct opposite; it's to warn against beleving in an idea simply because someone else had it. Because great minds might think somewhere close to eachother, but it's rare for fools to differ in thought.
