Sartre's Coffee

 

The French existentialist Jean-Paul Sartre was sitting in a cafe when a waitress approached him: "Can I get you something to drink, Monsieur Sartre?"

A dog went to a telegram office, took out a blank form and wrote: "Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof."

 

The clerk examined the paper and politely told the dog, "There are only nine words here. You could send another 'Woof' for the same price."

I live alone.

It hasn't always been that way.

It's nice sometimes

And swallows circling with their shimmering sound;  
  
And frogs in the pools singing at night,

Vezzini: "Haha.. you fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous is: Never get involved in a land war in Asia. Only slightly less well know is this: Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line! "

"Bless me Father, for I have sinned. I have been with a loose girl".

 

The priest asks, "Is that you, little Tommy Funachelli?"

 

"Yes, Father, it is."

 

"And who was the girl you were with?"

 

"I can't tell you, Father, I don't want to ruin her reputation."
