“Labour was the first price, the original purchase - money that was paid for all things. It was not by gold or by silver, but by labour, that all wealth of the world was originally purchased.”
Hints:
Not Karl
WoN
Ricardo's Friend
More hints. Added after cranky comment:

Labour with a "u", it must be someone with a British educational background. That leaves the other 2/5 or the world as possibilities ... unless it was the translator who was trained in the British educational system ... Come on, give another hint! Ricardo who?
It's David Ricardo, not Ricardo who. And the answer is probably Adam Smith.
Adam Smith indeed.
