Philosophy and Life

Philosophical principles in real life:
1) Husband: "Will you stop worrying? Worrying does no good."
Wife: "Yes it does. 90% of the things I worry about never happen!"
(Correlation does not mean cause-and-effect)

2) Psychiatrist: "Do you believe you are dead?"
Patient: "yes"
Psych.: "Do dead men bleed?"
Patient: "no"
[Psychiatrist takes a pocket knife and cuts the patients finger, which starts bleeding]
Psych.: "What does that tell you?"
Patient: "Well, whadda you know? Dead men DO bleed!"
(Assinine Assumptions Produce Confused Conclusions)
