Paraprosdokians ( To get the intense depth of meaning, don't speed read these   )


A paraprosdokian is a figure of speech in which the latter part of a sentence or phrase is surprising or unexpected in a way that causes the reader or listener to re-frame or reinterpret the first part. It is frequently used for humorous or dramatic effect. Enjoy!



I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my grandfather. Not screaming and yelling like the passengers in his car.



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



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



We never really grow up; we only learn how to act in public.



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



I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way. So I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness.



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


Evening news is where they begin with 'Good evening,' and then proceed to tell you why it isn't.


To steal    an   idea from one person is plagiarism. To steal from many is research.


A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. My desk is a work station.


How is it one careless match can start a forest fire, but it takes a whole box to start a campfire?


I thought I wanted a career; turns out I just wanted paychecks.



Whenever I fill out an application, in the part that says "In an emergency, notify:" I put " A DOCTOR."



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


Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet?


Behind every successful man is his woman. Behind the fall of a successful man is usually another woman.



A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.


The voices in my head may not be real, but they have some good ideas!


Some cause happiness wherever they go.. Others, whenever they go.



I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure.


I always take life with a grain of salt... plus a slice of lemon... and a shot of tequila.


You're never too old to learn something stupid.


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


Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.

All good ones. 
And a few more...

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

Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

Why do Americans choose from just two people to run for president and 50 for Miss America?

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

A diplomat is someone who can tell you to go to hell in such a way that you will look forward to the trip.

Money can't buy happiness, but it sure makes misery easier to live with.

Hospitality: making your guests feel like they're at home, even if you wish they were.

Some people are like Slinkies ... not really good for anything, but you can't help smiling when you see one tumble down the stairs.

Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.
