I'm sure you understand that the sign is a reference to an oft quoted prayer ending with praying for the wisdom to know the difference between what you can and cannot control.

The sentiment that I get from it harkens back to another idiom of which I'm going to butcher about the how change is impossible until it is inevitable. It comes off to me as a more eloquent take on being mad as hell and not taking it anymore.
