Why Did
The Chicken Cross
The Road?
|
| Ralph Waldo Emerson: It
didn't cross the road; it transcended it. |
|
| B.F. Skinner:Because
the external influences which had pervaded its sensorium from birth had
caused it to develop in such a fashion that it would tend to cross
roads,
even while believing these actions to be of its own free will. |
|
| Johann Friedrich Von
Goethe: The
eternal hen-principle made it do it. |
|
| Pyrrho the Skeptic: What
road? |
|
| Henry David Thoreau:To
live deliberately... and suck all the marrow out of life. |
|
| David Hume: Out of
custom and habit. |
|
| Malcom X: It was
coming home to roost. |
|
Ludwig
Wittgenstein:
The
possibility of crossing
was encoded into the objects chicken and road, and circumstances came
into
being which caused the actualization of this potential occurrence. |
|
| John Sun: The
Air Force was only too happy to provide the transportation, so quite
understandably
the chicken availed himself of the opportunity. |
|
| The Sphinx: You
tell me. |
|
| Mark Twain: The news
of its crossing has been greatly exaggerated. |
|
| Ruskin: For
different kinds of good weather. |
|
| Addison: For
mysterious love and uncertain treasure. |
|
| Policeman: Why didn't
you tell me before? |
|
| Bride: Because
it wants to be married. |
|
| Douglas Jerrold:
Because
it is so fond of ill-luck that it will run half-way to meet it. |
