I don't think it comes from any particular quote. It's simply an idiom...

Found this online:
DON'T JUDGE A MAN UNTIL YOU HAVE WALKED A MILE IN HIS BOOTS - Don't criticize another person's work until you've tried to do it yourself; don't judge another person's life until you've been forced to live it.

Thanks so much.....
I'm trying to explain to family members who have children, how I felt 20 years ago (when I was 30-something)..when it didn't look like I was going to have children.
I want to nicely tell them to not judge me because they have never been in my shoes.
I eventually met a great guy, but we are a little to old to have children. I am OK with it now. We have fur-babies who we consider gifts from God.
