<< review queue entry 28671 - submitted by 'mmmoore' >> MOE: 只要下定決心去做，天下沒有不能達成的事。 Editor: pinyin please -- the literla meaning of this idiom is disputed, because of the unexpected 只怕, however the global meaning is very clear. It comes back to me now, this is the saying that I have seen attributed to The Great Helmsman by a 國語老師, while it is in fact several centuries old. Probably went to school in the days where there were no books around. |
