Need author of quote.

[AutomagBoy]

I have this quote but i dont know who the author is, i think it is one of the old presidents before Roosevelt.

I goes something like this "The man who creates a factory creates a temple."

If you guys know who said this or where i can find out i will be very grateful.

Well I did some searching through Google and nothing comes up as a direct quote as you have written it but the most common link with as much of the quote you have comes up as either Mark Twain or from the Torah...both having a similar meaning. It must be a misquote that you have as very often politicians try to quote something and the meaning gets skewed...Kennedy with his Ich Bin Ein Berliner being a rather famous one. Even though technically it was correct it could be translated in another way.
