The problem is I’m not realy sure what the quote says. It’s some sort of play on words:
“more blank than blank.”
If anyone has any idea please help me. This has been bothering me all day.
Shakespeare 
Yes, I believe it was Shakespeare, but I don’t know what the blanks are.
Can that even count as a “quote”? Seems like more of a “comparison”.
I think you misunderstood the OP. Both of those blanks have the same value. So it’s a comparison, but a very specific tautological/oxymoronic comparison. eg “More real than reality”. “More Hollywood than Hollywood itself” and countles variations on the theme.
The earliest occurence I can think of off the top of my head is “more real than real world” associated with the early surrelaists. A Google search shows “more real than real world behind the real” used a lot as a quote when discussing early 20th century surrelaism, but for some reason although it always appears in quotes it is never attributed to anybody.
But that might be a good place to start looking if you can find who the quote is actually attributed to. IMO the feel is too modern to be Shakespeare, and my first guess was WIlde, but I wouldn’t have thought anything later than Victorian origin.
Looks like I was wrong.
“More fairer than fair, beautiful than beauteous, truer than truth itself, have commiseration on thy heroical vassal”
Love’s Labours Lost, Act IV, Scene I
Ah. I thought it was going to be a trick and quote would actually be, “More blank than blank.”
“More sinned against than sinning”?
– Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol
The expression “More Irish than the Irish themselves” (Hiberniores Hibernis ipsis) goes back almost a thousand years, to the time of the Norman conquest.
You mean it wasn’t “more human than human”, the Tyrell Corporation motto (Blade Runner)? Or the song by Rob Zombie?
How 'bout this line from*** Hamlet***?
“More honored in the breach than in the observance…”
That’s it! Thank you all so much. Now I can finally stop thinking about it.
I think it was Gene Rayburn from Matchgame.
