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.

🤐📞🙅♀️ You’re holding back from reaching out to him, and he’s glad not to be disturbed. // 你在忍住没找他，他在庆幸没被打扰。 Nǐ zài rěn zhù méi zhǎo tā, tā zài qìngxìng méi bèi dǎrǎo. // Nhĩ tại nhẫn trụ một hoa tha, tha tại khánh hạnh một bị đả nhiễu. // Bạn kiềm chế không tìm kiếm anh … Read more
💔🌌🚶♂️ The state of the heart is like being lost in a vast maze, stretching thousands of miles without a ferryman to guide. Only by self-navigation can one cross it, as others can’t truly assist. — Sanmao, “Sending You a Horse” // 心之何如，有似万丈迷津，遥亘千里，其中并无舟子可以渡人，除了自渡，他人爱莫能助。– 三毛《送你一匹马》 Xīn zhī hé rú, yǒu shì wàn zhàng mí jīn, yáo … Read more
