“A committee is a group of the unwilling, chosen from the unfit, to do the unnecessary” is a related saying.

Trying to find the original of this quote…
I originally learned this as “We, the unmotivated, led by the incompetent, having been doing so much, with so little, for so long, that we now attempt the impossible with nothing.”
 
I recently learned the following quote with credit: “We, the unwilling, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much, for so long, with so little, we are now qualified to do anything with nothing.” credited to Konstantin Josef Jireček
 
Does anyone know if this second one is the original, and the one I learned was a copy?
