The OT does not quote from profane sources; why would the NT? If something is in NT and is written authoritatively, whose authority are they expressing if not God's? There can simply be nothing written in the NT that is not of divine authority and therefore scriptural (inspired). Otherwise we invite personal judgment as to which parts of the bible are authentic and inspired, and which are not, and you know that can't be.

“Yet he is actually not far from each one of us, 28for “’In him we live and move and have our being’; as even some of your own poets have said, “’For we are indeed his offspring.’” - Paul in Athens, Acts 17
Were the Athens poets writing scripture?
