   The phrase   "Eat to live, Not live to eat"   
                           is an example of antimetabole.   
      
   Here's why: -- Antimetabole involves the repetition   
                      of the same words in a reversed  order.   
      
      
   Antimetabole:   
      
   -- Those who can, do. Those who can't, criticize.  (George Bernard Shaw)   
      
   -- Silence is golden, speech is silver.   (Proverb)   
      
   -- We live to learn, and learn to live.    (Latin Proverb)   
      
   -- "Fair is foul, and foul is fair" (Shakespeare's Macbeth)   
      
      
   Chiasmus:   
   -- By day the frolic, and the dance by night. (Samuel Johnson)   
      
   -- The wicked flee though no one pursues, but the righteous are as bold   
   as a lion.  (Proverbs 28:1)   
      
   -- Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness   
   thrust upon them. (Shakespeare's Twelfth Night)   
      
   -- "Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for   
   your country" (JFK's Inaugural Address)
