An Anagram, as you all know, is a word or phrase made by transposing or rearranging the letters of another word or phrase. No letters can be used twice or left out.
The following ones are exceptionally clever (someone out there either has way too much time on their hands or is deadly at Scrabble):
| Word/Phrase | Anagram | |
| ======== | ====== | |
| Dormitory | Dirty Room | |
| Evangelist | Evil's Agent | |
| Desperation | A Rope Ends It | |
| The Morse Code | Here Come Dots | |
| Slot Machines | Cash Lost in 'em | |
| Animosity | Is No Amity | |
| Mother-in-law | Woman Hitler | |
| Snooze Alarms | Alas! No More Z's | |
| Alec Guinness | Genuine Class | |
| Semolina | Is No Meal | |
| The Public Art Galleries | Large Picture Halls, I Bet | |
| A Decimal Point | I'm a Dot in Place | |
| The Earthquakes | That Queer Shake | |
| Eleven plus two | Twelve plus one | |
| Contradiction | Accord not in it |
This one is truly amazing: "To be or not to be: that is the question, whether its nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune."
ANAGRAM: "In one of the Bard's best-thought-of tragedies, our insistent hero, Hamlet, queries on two fronts about how life turns rotten."
And for a contemporary one: "That's one small step for a
man, one giant leap for mankind."
(Neil Armstrong, on the moon)
ANAGRAM: "A thin man ran; makes a large stride, left planet, pins flag on moon! On to Mars!"
And a final one, a perfect accompaniment to the impeachment trial; you're not going to believe this:
"President Clinton, of the USA"
ANAGRAM: "To copulate, he finds interns"
