A Palindrome is word that says the same forward as backward

Much more fun are Palindromic Phrases.
Here are some: -
Sums are not set as a test on Erasmus ( attributed to the great poet W.H. Auden)
A dog! A panic in a pagoda!
Ah, Satan sees Natasha
My favorite for the longest without cheating is
Doc, note, I dissent. A fast never prevents a fatness. I diet on cod. (I thought that this was by Jan Morris the transexual journalist but it is really by Peter Hilton.
The longest with cheating is this one by Unknown
Dennis, Nell, Edna, Leon, Nedra, Anita, Rolf, Nora, Alice, Carol, Leo, Jane, Reed, Dena, Dale, Basil, Rae, Penny, Lana, Dave, Denny, Lena, Ida, Bernadette, Ben, Ray, Lila, Nina, Jo, Ira, Mara, Sara, Mario, Jan, Ina, Lily, Arne, Bette, Dan, Reba, Diane, Lynn, Ed, Eva, Dana, Lynne, Pearl, Isabel, Ada, Ned, Dee, Rena, Joel, Lora, Cecil, Aaron, Flora, Tina, Arden, Noel, and Ellen sinned!
