Talk:Yogiism

Can you move an article to where it already is?

Perhaps this article should be moved entirely to the wikiquote, as I don't think there is any verifiable source for these 'yogiisms' (esp the term yogiism) - perhaps it should just be moved to Yogi Berra - wikiquote, since Yogi Berra definitely does exist!

on the subject of "It has been proposed below that Yogiism be renamed and moved to Yogiism"

If it was moved would anyone not find it? and regarding the number of quotes, would you say "no one reades the page anymore, its too crowded?"

on Placement of Yogiisms in general

I like the Wikiquotes site, but I want to find good yogi berra quotes, not links to links to links to 150 quotes. Steven Viemeister aka --rtisbute 05:54, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

{ {wikiy} }

I've added the { {wikify} } taag, because the article is written in a very informal style. Stale Fries 03:27, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Three Levels of a Yogiism

I submit there are three levels to a Yogiism:

1. The ha-ha funny level. (Ex: the fork-in-the-road. Which way??)

2. The level where you see what he was actually trying to say. (This isn't always easy, of course. Ex: Oh, it was a loop. now I get it.)

3. The "other" level - the level you reach when you look at the statement and it unfolds in a way you've never considered before, forcing you to re-evaluate a part of your existence. This level is usually hard to attain, but when you get there, your brain might shut down, it can be so deep. (Ex: What does that say about overcoming the obstacles in my life??? Whoa...)

Yogi = great philosopher
