Quotes from Jesus? Since the Gospels were written many years after his time, indeed they could only be handed-down paraphrasings at best. Regardless, I interpret the words symbolically, metaphorically, not literally.

Got it. From your perspective, the quotations are actually fraudulent, correct?

Why?

What is your reasoning to do so?
