Hope this is what you are asking for:

When discussing foreign aid, Nelson employed a modern version of the saying and called it a “Chinese proverb”: Foreign aid—“You give a poor man a fish and you feed him for a day. You teach him to fish and you give him an occupation that will feed him for a lifetime.

Hope this helps :))
