The actual quote which is attributed to
Mayer Amschel Rothschild is:
A number of sources (
such as this one) claim that this statement was made in 1838 (which would have been a difficult feat as he would have been dead for 26 years by then).
Wikiquote claims that there is no way to verify by whom, when or why it was made. It notes:
This prominent international banker is commonly quoted this. First, did he actually say it? Second, what was its context (when and where was he and what other things did he say shortly before or after this) if we know? Finally, seeing as how this is likely his most notable quote, did he ever reflect on it at a later time shedding some light on it?
It is adapted from another well known quote:
This is in turn attributed to the Scot,
Andrew Fletcher:
"Give me control of a nation's money and I care not who makes it's laws" — Mayer Amschel Bauer Rothschild This prominent international banker is commonly quoted this. First, did he actually say it?

In reality, the Rothschild banks are not – as has been repeatedly alleged – members of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the biggest of the Fed’s 12 banks) and nor do those banks which are members “control” the Fed itself.
