Experience Not Logic
"The purpose of this blog is to explore the business and legal culture of China. In 1881 Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. wrote, 'The life of the law has not been logic; it has been experience.' Each time I read a U.S. court decision, Holmes' quote flashes through my mind. In China, the rule is the same, but the experience is different. Here's to broadening the experience."
Left2Right
"We'd like to consider whether liberal ideas should be somehow reconsidered—in some respects revised, in others perhaps merely re-stated—with the aim of increasing the overall ratio of dialog to diatribe in the American political forum. Some of us will be trying out various ways of re-thinking and re-formulating those ideas; others may end up arguing that such attempts are unnecessary, even counter-productive. And in the course of our discussion, there will be plenty of digressions and asides of the sort that naturally occur at the margins of a group discussion."
