Typically when you quote someone you attribute the quote to them.

He's pretty obviously referring to what Graham said, and not favorably (this is one of the more disappointing Paul Graham twitter quotes).

I felt like the GP's citation was probably enough - "pg and Jessica have written about YC's philosophy multiple times in greater detail over the years."

(Graham is regularly quoted on HN without citation, especially in threads about his writing, which is how I classify this one.)
