Ars Magna*
Jim Kalb's site is a cornucopia of wordplay-related stuff. Listed below are some satisfyingly apposite anagrams I hadn't come across before.
astronomer = moon starer
circumstantial evidence = can ruin a selected victim
intoxicate = excitation
parishioners = I hire parsons
schoolmaster = the classroom
semolina = is no meal
Statue of Liberty = built to stay free
Summer, Autumn, Winter, Spring = "Time's running past", we murmur
The United States of America = Attaineth its cause: Freedom!
War on terrorism = Swarm into error
Western Union = no wire unsent
William Shakespeare = I am a weakish speller
*'Ars Magna' is Latin for 'Great Art', and an anagram of 'anagram'
