You might have realized that this “Quote of the day” section has become a large part of my website’s content. While I was picking up Chinese again in my late 30s after dropping it in my late 20s, I decided that the best way to study is to translate some quotes that I encountered into my mother tongue and English on the go.
These quotes may be funny or related to self-help. What’s better than being a better version of you while studying? Have fun with quotes in 3 languages. Check back here everyday for a new quote. Enjoy learning Vietnamese, Chinese, and English.

🤩🌹😌 In these challenging days, the one who deserves to be pleased the most is yourself. // 在这么艰难的日子里，最该被讨好的就是自己。 Zài zhème jiānnán de rìzi lǐ, zuì gāi bèi tǎohǎo de jiùshì zìjǐ. // Tại giá ma gian nan đích nhật tử lý, tối cai bị thảo hảo đích tựu thị tự kỷ. // Trong cuộc sống … Read more
