Dear Tastes Like Chicken,
I do not have an original source link, unfortunately.
The good news is that I found a larger version of the same quote from Dr. Elliot.
The bad news is that the rest of the page is in Italian. My Italiano is quite poor, I am afraid ... but as it happens, you and I have a mutual friend who would be quite adept at the translation, but also personally involved in its subject matter to a certain extent.
In any event, it is: neurolinguistic.com
Of significance is another section that is readable, and is a list of famous persons thought to have suffered from ADD (the initials are different in Italian, of course):
