I don't know if he was the original speaker but I've always heard that quote
referenced to Abraham Lincoln.

Wisdom sometimes, yes.  Other times humor.  Other times nonsense.  Other
times static.  Other times pervasive love and warmth.  They are all thoughts, 
human thoughts, whether scripted or ill-considered or just off the cuff, 
but they all represent some view, some construction that has been consensually 
accepted as interesting enough to merit being passed along.

Every word in your vocabularly is a quote.  You spent your childhood
learning hearing what others said, internalized it, and used it in some
form as a starting point for expressing your own original thoughts and
feelings.

Quotes should never become a substitute for thought, but they can
certainly represent a treasured view that somewhere along the line
struck you as intriguing and original.

Besides, God helps those who help themselves.

RICHARD II  

This royal throne of kings, this scepter'd isle,
This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars,
This other Eden, demi-paradise,
This fortress built by Nature for herself
Against infection and the hand of war,
This happy breed of men, this little world,
This precious stone set in the silver sea,
Which serves it in the office of a wall,
Or as a moat defensive to a house,
Against the envy of less happier lands,
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England,
This nurse, this teeming womb of royal kings,
Fear'd by their breed and famous by their birth,
Renowned for their deeds as far from home,--
For Christian service and true chivalry,--
As is the sepulchre in stubborn Jewry
Of the world's ransom, blessed Mary's Son:
This land of such dear souls, this dear, dear land,
Dear for her reputation through the world,
Is now leas'd out,--I die pronouncing it,--
Like to a tenement or pelting farm:
England, bound in with the triumphant sea,
Whose rocky shore beats back the envious siege
Of watery Neptune, is now bound in with shame,
With inky blots, and rotten parchment bonds:
That England, that was wont to conquer others,
Hath made a shameful conquest of itself.
II.i.40
