[09.10.19] Dongwan’s blog: 2009 (main page updated)

Carl Hilty (28 February 1833 – 1909) was a Swiss philosopher, writer and lawyer who famously said “Peace is only a hair’s breadth away from war.” Dongwan’s quote is taken from one of Hilty’s works, “Happiness; essays on the meaning of life”.

Many a life of the widest experience would testify
That the most unendurable experience is to be found,
Not in a series of stormy days,
But in a series of cloudless ones.
