Does Buddhism promote PATIENCE for suffering and/or joy?
Patience is promoted as a good social norm:
“If you are patient in one moment of anger, you will escape a hundred days of sorrow.”
“Sorrow and silence are strong, and patient endurance is godlike.”
"Abused patience turns to fury. "
"Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet."
These are a bit different social quotes for patience:
"Alcohol gives you infinite patience for stupidity."
"Humility is attentive patience. "
Would you agree if I say that Buddhism does not promote PATIENCE for suffering and/or joy?
Why or why not?
Please explain.

Instead, Buddhism uses Middle path (Majjhima-patipadā) towards freedom (nibbāna).
