Number 16 is a universal salute to Nancy Pelosi.

I can definitely relate to number 17.

Steven Wright had some great one-liners that might qualify:

It's a small world ... but if you had to paint it.

What's another word for thesaurus?

If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

All those who believe in psychokinesis raise my hand.

When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

You can't have everything, where would you put it?
