Hui Shi

Hui Shi (Chinese: 惠施; pinyin: Huì Shī; Wade–Giles: Hui⁴ Shih¹; 370–310 BCE^[1]), or Huizi (Chinese: 惠子; pinyin: Huìzǐ; Wade–Giles: Hui⁴ Tzu³; "Master Hui"), was a Chinese philosopher during the Warring States period. A representative of the School of Names (Logicians), he is famous for ten paradoxes about the relativity of time and space, for instance, "I set off for Yue (southeastern China) today and came there yesterday." Said to have written a code of laws, Hui was a prime minister in the state of Wei.^[2]
