Amazing Anagrams

Anagrams are truly amazing.  I wonder sometimes if people realize subconsciously that they are creating words with a layer of language that can be reversed, manipulated, and subtly changed to create a new meaning.  As someone who reads a lot, and is fascinated by word-smithing, I find this to be truly awesome.  This is a bit different from my usual posts, but hope you enjoy

An anagram is basically rearranging the words out of order to create a hidden or different meaning. 


 Clint Eastwood an anagram of Old West Action? Someone once said, "All the life's wisdom can be found in anagrams. Anagrams never lie."



If you want to try something interesting, search up an online anagram analyzer and try searching up a few words that are meaningful to you. Maybe your name, your girlfriends, favourite actors, movies, quotes, anything.  


Here are a few that I find to be quite amazing and interesting:


Dormitory = Dirty Room

Elvis = Lives

Listen = Silent

The country side = No City Dust Here

Evangelist = Evil's Agent

The eyes = They see

Desperation = A rope ends it

The Morse Code = Here Come Dots

The Meaning of Life = The fine game of nil


Astronomers = Moon starers / No more stars


A domesticated animal = Docile, as a man Tamed it


And some quotes...

Quote by Vonnegut:

Just because some of us can read and write and do a little math, that doesn't mean we deserve to conquer the universe. =

A masquerade can cover a sense of what is real to deceive us; to be unjaded and not lost, we must, then, determine truth.

(by Cory Calhoun)


Mr. William Jefferson Clinton, former President of these United States of America =

 Monica flirts. Wife sees hot jism from cad land on fat intern, set to rule free empire

(by Joe Kline) 


And Some Longer Ones...

The Curse of the Ring (from The Lord of the Rings)

In the land of Mordor, where the shadows lie,
One Ring to rule them all,
One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all,
And in the darkness, bind them.

=

Who fears Nine Morgul men,
A lot of bandit demons,
The gathering torrent,
And Him, one Dark Lord
Sheltered within His hell?
Men, blind to the One Ring.
(by Michael J. Mateyka)
Ennyn Durin Aran Moria. Pedo mellon a minno.
Im Narvi hain echant. Celebrimbor o Eregion teithant i thiw hin

=

I'm main entrance into Dwarven hall; no enemy or minion, human or hobbit, can enter. Thing in pool, I hear in air. Die.

=

Hi, human idiot. I am main entrance into Dwarven hall; no enemy or minion can enter, nor bribe. I hear thing in pool.
(by Doug Yanega)
