I think you mean this quote by Michel de Montaigne:
“I leaf through books, I do not study them. What I retain of them is something I no longer recognize as anyone else’s.
It is only the material from which my judgment has profited, and the thoughts and ideas with which it has become imbued;
the author, the place, the words, and other circumstances, I immediately forget.”
It's in chapter 7, around page 170.
