    I think this might be the original quote.
    "Those who stand for nothing fall for anything."
    -Alexander Hamilton


    Or maybe this is the original-
    "You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything"
    ~Ginger Rogers [1978]


    But your quote has been linked to Malcolm X too, but I could not find any information on that to prove if it is true or not.
