Did a line like that actually originate from a movie? I mean that's not even really a line! That's like "don't run with scissors". Typical stuff parents warn their kids about. I find it hard to believe that qualifies as a "line" that society absorbed. I mean I hear it all the time, year round, and not as a "quote" as all but as a warning not to play with that.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
