Where is this quote from?


Recommended Posts

My grandma just sent me a card because she won sixty quid on the lottery and gave me a tenner of it (bless her) but the thing is the card has a quote on it that I know I've heard from some film or TV programme or something. Here it is:

God grant me the serenity to

accept the things I cannot

change, the courage to change the

things I can and the wisdom to

know the difference.

Somebody here has to know it's killing me here.

update, i found the actual quote i was thinking off, still sure its right tho -

God grant me the serenity not to have sex with my friend's girlfriend, the courage to go home tonight without having sex with my friend's girlfriend and the wisdom to know that masturbation is sometimes the most sensible solution.

No I don't remember anything about that film on account of it being so shitty.

It's on loads of things, I'll remember it eventually. I think it may have been in a textbook or something.

It is the serenity prayer, been using it my entire life and its been around forever...as for movies its been used in if you look at the bottom of the wikipedia page you can find a bunch.

The most notable ones are will smith in " I am legend " , from Stephen King's book " Salems Lot " and apparently was also recited by a blood elf in World of Warcraft

Yeah man I know. I read that link too. I knew it was the serenity prayer but I just can't remember where I read it/heard it recently. Starting to think Foley quoted it in Hardcore Diaries.
