the quote is George Soros talking about his experience as a 14 year old during WWII. it is taken from the foreword of his father's memoir, so you can get that book and see it's a real quote, straight from the horse's mouth. biographer Peter Osnos later asked Soros about why he said it, and Soros pretended not to remember:
“It is a sacrilegious thing to say, but these ten months were the happiest times of my life. We were pursued by evil forces and we were clearly on the side of the angels because we were unjustly persecuted; moreover, we were trying not only to save ourselves, but also to save others. . . . What more could a fourteen year- old want?”

George Soros: A Life In Full
"He built no company, developed no algorithm, possessed no IP that could be bottled and sold. He made money—extraordinary amounts—from what he mysteriously called the 'alchemy' of finance."
