The Taiwanese have a popular saying: "Fate is rooted in the bones and can't be cut away." The meaning is that everything in a person's life, failure or success, good luck or bad, is predetermined. It is rooted in one's bones and cannot be avoided.
台灣有句俗諺：「命著骨，用刀也刮不脫」，意即每個人一生的窮達吉凶是一定的，就像根植在骨頭裡一樣，無法擺脫。
