My grandma says it alot, but i don't think its actually attributed to anybody. It's just an old maxim.

EDIT:
Edward K Morgan wrote a novel with that title, but he did not coin the phrase.

"Don't judge a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes.
That way, you're a mile away from him, and you've got his shoes."

The original I heard was, "Don't judge a man until you have walked a mile in his moccasins."

I've always heard in attributed to "an old Native American saying".

You can find references to this, but no concrete attributions, on the internet - look for walk in his moccasins, rather than in his shoes...
