There was a famous misogynystic/racist/chauvinistic prayer in ancient greece, uttered by one of the seven sages of greece, I think, that went something like: "Every morning when I wake up, i thank the gods that I am white, I am male and I am Greek."

can anyone confirm that this prayer is accurately quoted and tell me which "sage" uttered his prayer.

I remember the prayer being quoted in class on Greek history or art history when the teacher wanted to question just how "enlightened" Greek society was, roughly during the time of ancient Greece's flourishing...
If anyone could help me, I'd appreciate it very much...
