The earliest attribution for this quote is to Jean Paul Richter, a German romantic writer who lived from the late 18th century to the early 19th century. It appears first in 1918 in The Modern Hospital, Volume 10, page 219.
The quote is also attributed to Helen Keller as quoted in The Open Door (1957), and later to Alexander Graham Bell, first appearing in Christian Herald, Volume 89 (1966).
None of these attributions have ever been successfully vetted.
