Get out of the kitchen

I checked most of the archives, but that could take a day. Seriously, after doing the first 7 and the last few and some in the middle, I decided to just ask so here goes...

If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

Could you please tell me who came up with this phrase and what they really meant or what it means or... whatever.

I appreciate your help and by the way, there really are some interesting phrases out there! Thank you.

The phrase is stating that you don't take on a job if you are unwilling to face its pressures and responsibilities.

It is most often attributed to Harry S Truman, President of the US 1945 to 1953. Whether it was wholly original with him, I can't say. Harry was colorful, outspoken and honest. He said what he meant, and meant what he said, qualities strangely lacking in all of his successors.
