It occurred to me you might not believe me about "paraphrase": par·a·phrase (pr-frz) n. 1.A restatement of a text or passage in another form or other words, often to clarify meaning. 2.The restatement of texts in other words as a studying or teaching device. v. par·a·phrased, par·a·phras·ing, par·a·phras·es. v. tr. Please note that is is to clarify meaning, not ruin it. So as I see it, you couldn't recall the original quote or had never heard it used correctly, and you compound this by appearing not to know the meaning of the word paraphrase. I would suggest you purchase a book of quotations and a dictionary- although there on line versions available you don't seem to be able to use them.
