苦海无边, 回头是岸。

Kǔhǎi wúbiān, huítóu shì àn.*

苦海無邊, 回頭是岸。

Fig If one commits any mistakes, fix them as soon as possible.

Note [Note: kǔhǎi is a Buddhist term referring to the “Sea of Woes,” i.e., the bitterness of earthly life; cf. the chengyu: kǔhǎi yú shēng, “surviving in the bitter sea of life”; huítóu-shì'àn is used as a Buddhist chengyu with the meaning “repent and be saved”; see also yǒu chóu jiē kǔhǎi below.]
