There is the quote, "The truth will set you free".
And then there are the quotes,
"The truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off."
and
"When you believe a lie for too long, the truth doesn't set you free. It tears you apart.".
I'm not concerned about who said the quotes or why. My question is focused on whether a single word phrase exists that you could call each of the derived quotes, which are based on another quote (particularly, the first one, in this example). So something with meaning similar to "modified quote", "derived quote", "adjusted quote", "inspired quote", or "allusion quote", but as a single word if possible. Does such a word exist?
