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.

💡🗣️💥 There’s a quote I really like: A bold person simply has opinions, can get things done, and keeps things balanced. More importantly, they can afford to lose. // 里有句话我很喜欢，有魄力的人无非是：有主张、搞得定、摆的平。还有更重要一点：输得起。 Lǐ yǒu jù huà wǒ hěn xǐhuān, yǒu pòlì de rén wúfēi shì: yǒu zhǔzhāng, gǎo dé dìng, bǎi dé píng. Hái yǒu gèng zhòngyào … Read more
🌿💭🕊 Those who live with clarity have no relationships they desperately want to maintain, no possessions they strongly desire. They don’t resist those who come close, nor cling to those who leave. They don’t even bother to count their losses. // 活得通透的人，没有特别想维持的关系，也没有特别想要的东西，走近的人不抗拒，离开的人不强留，就连吃亏也懒得计较。 Huó dé tōng tòu de rén, méiyǒu tèbié xiǎng wéichí de guānxi, yě … Read more
💸✈️🌿 Let go for a moment, listen to the wind, and enjoy freedom. // 释怀一刻，听风享自由。 Shì huái yī kè, tīng fēng xiǎng zìyóu. // Thích hoài nhất khắc, thính phong hưởng tự do. // Buông bỏ trong chốc lát, lắng nghe gió và tận hưởng tự do.
