Clever Language Use

A couple more quotes that amused me. I just love it when people play with the language like this. This one from my daughter, for no good reason:

Neither of them are if one of them isn’t.

And this one from the ex-Mrs. Rexroth in the movie “Intolerable Cruelty” (which is a witty and worthwhile Coen brothers’ movie):

I said I wouldn’t whilst I was, which implies no promise once I am.
