"May you live in interesting times" is an English expression which purports to be a translation of a traditional Chinese curse. While seemingly a blessing, the expression is normally used ironically; life is better in "uninteresting times" of peace and tranquility than in "interesting" ones, which are usually times of trouble.
Interesting Fact: Despite being so common in English as to be known as the "Chinese curse", the saying is apocryphal, and no actual Chinese source has ever been produced. The most likely connection to Chinese culture may be deduced from analysis of the late-19th-century speeches of Joseph Chamberlain, probably erroneously transmitted and revised through his son Austen Chamberlain.
Interesting Fact: You are outside the Quaker Burial Ground where all the headstones are of the same height (very low) since in the Quaker religion no individual is seen to be greater than another in life or death.
Interesting Fact: In the middle of the The Avenue, and opposite this cache is a stone carving illustrating "King Canute Rebuking his Courtiers" which was alleged to happen in Southampton, although not at this spot.
