Could you tell me where I can find that in scripture?

That isn't a quote from Jesus. It is attributed to Lao Tzu, amongst others I suppose.

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.

Okay, well, I am going straight to hell. I think I just falsely attributed a quote to Jesus that he did not really say. That has to be a violation of at least one of the Ten Commandments.

I think it is just an old expression that I mistakenly thought Jesus said. I apologize, and I am supremely embarrassed.
