if i say i am insane therfore i am sane as insane people deny being insane
does this make any sense or is it twisted logic
no its not logic or twisted logic; its needing to be re-worded...
how would you reword it then?
It's called Catch 22. There's a book about it.
Here this might work a little better:
If I say I am insane, I am sane, for insane people deny being insane.
You really can't have "If" and "as" there. It makes it a run-on sentence.
thanks glad it's cleared up now
But am i sane by saying i'm insane?

Catch-22 (one of my favorite books)? It's not as simple as how you've put it. If you want out of the war (WWII in this case), you can get sent home if the doctor deems you insane. However, you have to ask to go home before the doctor can send you home. If you ask to go home in a war, you're not insane, and therefore, you can't be sent home for being insane.
maybe i should have stayed quite
