My reaction, dependent on whether the quote is intended as humourous or not, is usually to assume they're being preachy. If the quote is "herpaderpaderp" then obviously its not being psuedo-intellectual, but when its some sort of wierd "motivational statement" except full of logical holes and totally inapplicable to real life, I tend to just assume that they're trying to put it forth as a personal philosophy.
