Hi Nina
I think the
translation �Meet by clothes, see off by mind � will

Good luck in studying Russian :)

Well, I don�t know Russian or Ukrainian but according to yingwenlaoshi �s answer , a good equivalent might be "You never get a second chance to make a first impression" (I �ve always loved this quote) |
