It's something like: "a teacher has little external history"....I'm sorry, but that's all I know.

It was said on The Emperor's Club (a movie).

The Emperor's Club writing credit: Neil Tolkin
there is little evidence that this is other than the original source
see discussion here
http://forum.quoteland.com/1/OpenTopic?a=tpc&s=586192041&f=099191541&m=1161942756
and the reference to the quotation at Webster's site in sources

"Great teachers have little external history to record.
Their lives go over into other lives.
These men are pillars in the intimate structure of our schools.
They are more essential than its stones or beams.
They will continue to be a kindling force and a revealing power;
part of the necessary fabric men breathe."


***** EDIT *****

to make it perfectly clear the quote is from the film itself.
there is no evidence its use in the film is from a preexisting source - this is confirmed by the Webster's Dictionary site quoting it with the film script as the source

not sure if it's right, but i looked it up, and i found :

Older Deepak Mehta: A great teacher has little external history to record. His life goes over into other lives. These men are pillars in the intimate structure of our schools. They are more essential than its stones or beams, and they will continue to be a kindling force and a revealing power in our lives.

so yeah...i'm pretty sure it's Older Deepak Mehta ?
hopefully that was some help to you =]
