Ancient Chinese proverb?

[CheertheSecond]

Anyone knows the origin of this proverb?

"Hold back and get ovarian cysts; retreat and grow breast lumps."

 

[NotaNuffian]

忍一时风平浪静，退一步海阔天空。

Mtl: A moment of patience brings calm, a step back opens up a vast expanse.

What yours is... is more accurate.

You can only tolerate until internal injuries.

忍一时卵巢囊肿；退一步乳房肿块。

“忍一时卵巢囊肿，退一步乳腺增生”

I was so shocked when I found out it's an actual saying, apparently. Can't believe I've never heard it before. Ah... 活到老学到老, I'm learning something new everyday. ??

忍一時 變本加厲
退一步 得寸進尺

Endure one moment, they will change the rules and make it worst.
Step back an inch, and they will take a mile.

You mean there were no ovarian cysts and breast cancer involved?

From @pangmida 's “忍一时卵巢囊肿，退一步乳腺增生” is the actual chinese quote.

And this chinese quote is derived from this.

忍一时风平浪静，退一步海阔天空。

Mtl: A moment of patience brings calm, a step back opens up a vast expanse.

While the idea of tolerance is nice, it is actually harmful to continue being angered and enraged. That's where the cancer comes from.

And @pangmida 's does have medical website talk about it.
