The known face does most of the work, as fans click the person before the topic. The quote adds a blunt standard, get good at the content, which feeds the title's ad promise. A stranger gets little here, and that is the trade.

The thumbnail pairs the famous face with one blunt spoken line.
Use a spoken quote as thumbnail text only when your face is already recognised, because the quote leans on trust you may not have yet. Unknown creators should sell the promise instead.
