You can do nothing about it. It is not copyrighted, you are on a public website so no. Sorry.
According to the person above me you need a famous WW2 military general on your quote (Patton). I believe they meant patent which is for inventions. Seeing as how you didn't invent the concept of inventions I would recommend getting a copyright. Which if the quote is this important to you might be a good idea. But then everytime you use it you must state that is it (C)

Intellectual piracy is common in the Internet. Next time, copyright your quote.

I DON'T think so; however, consider it a compliment that someone liked it enough to claim it as their own.

I feel bad for you. however, maybe that person came up with it on their own and didn't realize another person had already came up with it. Just deal with it
