the quiet superpower of people who outlast everyone too loud to notice.
means The calm, steady capacity to wait, endure delay, or tolerate trouble without losing your temper.
from From Latin patientia, 'the quality of suffering or enduring,' rooted in the verb pati, 'to suffer, undergo, bear.' That same long-suffering root quietly sits inside 'passion' (originally Christ's suffering), 'passive,' and the hospital 'patient' — one who endures treatment. It reached English through Old French in the medieval period, carrying the sense that to be patient is, quite literally, to bear something.
