I read years ago that there's supposed to be a Chinese curse that translates to "may you live in interesting times", which sounds more like a blessing unless you think of what they mean by "interesting", like war, chaos, political unrest and such. But last light I read that the curse is more of an urban legend and there's little proof that they actually have such a saying in China.
It probably is not a real Chinese proverb.
But it does make a point.
And it makes the argument that...maybe... there are tourists from the future doing time traveling, but that they may actually be avoiding our time for other eras precisely because it so "interesting".
