[Grem] Fwd: Paraprosdokians

[György Paál]

brilliant!

**Paraprosdokians (Winston Churchill loved them) are figures of speech 
in which the latter part of a sentence or phrase is surprising or 
unexpected; frequently humorous.**

*1. Where there's a will, I want to be in it.*

*2. The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But it's still on my list.*

*3. Since light travels faster than sound, some people appear bright 
Until you hear them speak.*

*4. If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong.*

*5. We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public.*

*6. War does not determine who is right - only who is left.*

*7. Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it 
in a fruit salad.*

*8. To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism. To steal from many is

research.*

*9. I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.*

*10. In filling out an application, where it says, 'In case of 
emergency, Notify:' I put 'DOCTOR'.*

*11. Women will never be equal to men until they can walk down the 
Street with a bald head and a beer gut, and still think they are sexy.*

*12. You do not need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute 
to skydive twice.*

*13. I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not so sure.*

*14. To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you 
hit the target.*

*15. Going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than standing 
in a garage makes you a car.*

*16. You're never too old to learn something stupid.*

*17. I'm supposed to respect my elders, but it is getting harder and 
Harder for me to find one now.*
