It could be from Paul Heyne's textbook, "The 
Economic Way of Thinking." On pg. 407, he says 
"The General Theory...is by common agreement an 
obscure and badly organized book. ...but no one 
quite knew what the essential message was." The 
comment about being The GT being "badly 
organized" is a direct but un-attributed quote 
from J. K. Galbraith's  "A Journey Through Economic Time," pg. 98.
