Policeman: Yes, you're on the right, and that's wrong.

Young man: I don't understand if right is wrong, I'm right when I'm on the wrong side. So why did you stop me?

Policeman: You must keep to the left, sir! The right side is the left.

Young man: It's like a looking glass. I'll try to remember.

Policeman: You should also remembermm left.

Young man: Now let me think. Turn left! In England left is right, and right is wrong. Am I right?
