| "Take one of those unintentionally ambiguous newspaper headlines, like 'Stud Tires Out,' which was in a New Hampshire newspaper when they banned stud tires. But most people give it a different interpretation, the fact that there can be two ideas underlying the words shows that words and thoughts can't be the same thing." --Stephen Pinker
