Kerry and Dublin

I'm sure you've all heard these "deeply profound" statements before which involve changing the order of the words.

Examples:

It's not about the size of the dog in the fight, it's about the size of the fight in the dog.

Fail to prepare, prepare to fail.

Don't limit your challenges, challenge your limits.

Does anyone have any more examples, or just ones you've made up yourself?

I'm specifically looking for ones like the above examples, where the second clause of the sentence simply changes the order of the words in the first clause.

"Better to be prepared and not needed than to be needed and unprepared "

Nice. I'd forgotten that one - I know it as, better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.
