不知道版主要寫那一類的警語標示, 若是針對從事某些體能活動, 那麼"忍耐"應該是"耐力"的含意; 若是要警告別人不要欺人太甚, 那麼"忍耐"應該是"耐心, 忍受"的含意.前者應該翻成endurance:Beware that humans have limited endurance.Don't expect unlimited endurance from humans.Humans only endure within certain limits.後者應該翻成patienceDon't test one's patience!People have limited patience.A person's patience is always limited.至於Every man has a point of breakdown.(每個人都有一個瀕臨崩潰的極限)*breaking point是"【數】轉化點", 與"忍耐"無關.另外, bear也有"忍耐"的意思:Don't expect me to bear you indefinitely.

all the endurance of all human being have the limitation.
不過如果版大是要警告某人的話,最好能加一句"so is mine".所以就會是:
"all the endurance of all human being have the limitation, so is mine."
說的更明白一點,就是:
"i don't have much patience./my patience is always limited."
"you have no idea about the restriction of my tolerance."
