Eliran Haziza, a graduate student in philosophy at the University of Toronto, has written a program to strip occurrences of "unintentional haiku" from corpuses of text. When run on the philosophers of our time, the program locates various gems,which Mr. Haziza kindly gave permission to share:

> Snow falls, and is white;
> the falling is a process,
> the whiteness is not.
> (Bertrand Russell, The Analysis of Mind)
> 
> The game, one would like
> to say, has not only rules
> but also a point.
> (Ludwig Wittgenstein, Philosophical Investigations)
> 
> No Grandfather, no
> Father; no Father, no Tim;
> no Tim, no killing.
> (David Lewis, “The Paradoxes of Time Travel”)
> 
> Suppose that I cling
> to some rock as a mere means
> of escaping death.
> (Derek Parfit, Reasons and Persons)
> 
> We sometimes say: in
> later life I will be a
> different person.
> (David Lewis, "Survival and Identity")
> 
> You have an auto
> accident one winter night
> on a lonely road.
> (Thomas Nagel, The View from Nowhere)
> 
> When I turn my eye
> inward, I find nothing but
> doubt and ignorance.
> (David Hume, A Treatise of Human Nature)
