Edgar Cayce quote
Just an explanation for the reversion: I got rid of the Edgar Cayce addition for a few reasons...

The primary reason is that it's just 1 person saying the phrase 1 time, which isn't sufficient to make this page. If he were the one who invented the quote—and if we had trustworthy citations to back it up—it'd be excellent content. Neither of these seem to be the case, though. Ngram shows the phrase was seen in books as early as 1896, and reached a peak in 1916—so it was an established phrase by the time Cayce used it in 1931.

Some more minor issues (which I would've fixed if this belonged on the page): It would need to be placed in the proper section. If Cayce invented it, the intro is a fine place, but if it's a more tenuous connection, it would need to go in a proper section. Also, the citation wasn't written in Wikipedia format. I was not able to find the source to get further context, but it appears the citation is effectively self-published! Edgar Cayce was a self-proclaimed "clairvoyant" who claimed to "speak from his higher self" while in a trance-like state. Sooo, even if he did allege to invent it (which, it sounds like he didn't..but even if he did), I don't know that I would consider his own organization's book of quotes from his own speeches a reliable source for that proof.
