Why do you want to quote all the header information?

You could probably make SuperCite do what you want; or you could write a
function yourself:

,----[ C-h v message-citation-line-function RET ]
| `message-citation-line-function' is a variable declared in Lisp.
|   -- loaded from "message"
| 
| Value: message-insert-citation-line

| Documentation:
| *Function called to insert the "Whomever writes:" line.
| 
| Predefined functions include `message-insert-citation-line' and
| `message-insert-formatted-citation-line' (see the variable
| `message-citation-line-format').
| 
| Note that Gnus provides a feature where the reader can click on

I think that would be a bad idea.

The headers are almost never interesting, the body is - the person you
reply to can always check the headers of the sent email, if necessary.
