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.

🛏️🌟📚 Knowing that exercise is good for the body, we still curl up in bed unwilling to get up; knowing that reading can improve one’s temperament, we still prefer to spend time playing with the phone; knowing that letting go and being carefree would be better, we’re still indecisive and foolishly missing. Perhaps the original … Read more
🏆🏁🥇 Winning doesn’t necessarily mean being first; winning means you’ve done better than before. // 获胜并不意味着成为第一，获胜意味着你比以前做得更好。 Huòshèng bìng bù yìwèizhe chéngwéi dì yī, huòshèng yìwèizhe nǐ bǐ yǐqián zuò dé gèng hǎo. // Hoạch thắng tịnh bất ý vị trứ thành vi đệ nhất, hoạch thắng ý vị trứ nhĩ bỉ dĩ tiền tố đắc … Read more
☀️🌧️🛌 Sunny days are suitable for outings, rainy days are suitable for sleeping, and in the long years, there seems to be no day suitable for work. // 晴天适合出行，雨天适合睡觉，漫长的岁月中竟没有一天适合上班。 Qíngtiān shìhé chūxíng, yǔtiān shìhé shuìjiào, màncháng de suìyuè zhōng jìng méiyǒu yītiān shìhé shàngbān. // Tình thiên thích hợp xuất hành, vũ thiên thích hợp … Read more
