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.

🤔💔🍃 The calmness of adults: One-third is understanding, one-third is compromise, and the rest is just letting it go. // 成年人的平静：三分之一是理解，三分之一是妥协，剩下的都是算了。 Chéngnián rén de píngjìng: Sān fēn zhī yī shì lǐjiě, sān fēn zhī yī shì tuǒxié, shèng xià de dōu shì suànle. // Thành niên nhân đích bình tĩnh: Tam phân chi nhất thị … Read more
