Google Keep works great for me! It has its own cons but for a quick note, with quotes, or an idea it's enough ;)

Enough means it produces zero friction, or acceptable friction? :)

It's not zero but I can't imagine a faster way to take a note than keep :)
It would be awesome if an app categorizes the notes by itself and recognize is it a quote, idea, or to do, but it will be quite hard ;)

In the machine learning era, I believe it's probably less hard than we might think ;)

+1 for Google Keep, and especially using labels (taxonomy). I have one for ideas (@spark so it sorts near the top), based on using a spark file (old LH article but the start of the rabbit hole):

It's easy enough to work with, and I can share a note out to another app if I need more options
