That may be the correct quote, but is it the quotable quote, "krylatoe
vyrazhenie"?

As an analogy let me give an example. "Annushka uzhe razlila maslo" is
nowhere to be found in Bulgakov, yet this is the phrase that people
"quote", this is the "krylatoe vyrazhenie" associated with the event of
predicting fate etc.
