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.

If they like your personality, being assertive is fine; if not, being gentle won’t make a difference. // 好的恋爱和怎样的性格没有太大直接关系吧，关键还是要看对方是不是对的人，他喜欢你的性格，强势也没有错，不喜欢，你再温柔也没用。 Hǎo de liàn’ài hé zěnyàng dì xìnggé méiyǒu tài dà zhíjiē guānxì ba, guānjiàn … Read more
