When and where did he make this quote (if at all)?
Apparently it really is from a-z quotes, but the only reference provided there is that he made the remark some time in 1982.
Edit: Some more digging shows that it's from a speech he made about something called Project Economic Justice. However, this transcript says it was delivered in 1987, not 1982.
