Quotes by Reinhold Niebuhr

US Protestant theologian (1892 - 1971)

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.

God, give us grace to accept with serenity the things that cannot be changed, courage to change the things which should be changed, and the wisdom to distinguish the one from the other.

Frantic orthodoxy is never rooted in faith but in doubt. It is when we are unsure that we are doubly sure.

Nothing worth doing is completed in our lifetime; therefore, we must be saved by hope.

There is no cure for the pride of a virtuous nation but pure religion.
