"Give me ten minutes with that chicken and we'll find out." -- Tomas de Torquemada

"Because it could not stop for death." -- Emily Dickinson
"How many roads must one chicken cross?" -- Bob Dylan
"Whether the chicken crossed the road or the road crossed the chicken depends upon your frame of reference." -- Albert Einstein
"It did so because the discourse of crossing the road left it no choice-the police state was oppressing it." -- Michele Foucault
"To cross the road less traveled by." -- Robert Frost
"To boldly go where no chicken has gone before." -- James Tiberius Kirk
"To get away from Kirk. And you really don't want to know any more than that." -- Spock
"The eternal hen-principle made it do it." -- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
"In my day, we didn't ask why the chicken crossed the road. Someone told us that the chicken had crossed the road, and that was good enough for us." -- Grandpa

"There already was a chicken on the other side of the road." -- Wolfgang Pauli
"In order to act in good faith and be true to itself, the chicken found it necessary to cross the road." -- Jean-Paul Sartre
"Why does anyone cross a road? I mean, why doesn't anyone ever think to ask, 'What the heck was this chicken doing walking around all over the place, anyway?'" -- Jerry Seinfeld

"As the Good Book says... Well I'm sure it says something in there about a chicken and a road." -- Tevyah
"There was no alternative." -- Margaret Thatcher
"The chicken, sunlight coruscating off its radiant yellow- white coat of feathers, approached the dark, sullen asphalt road and scrutinized it intently with its obsidian-black eyes. Every detail of the thoroughfare leapt into blinding focus: the rough texture of the surface, over which countless tires had worked their relentless tread through the ages; the innumerable fragments of stone embedded within the lugubrious mass, perhaps quarried from the great pits where the Sons of Man labored not far from here; the dull black asphalt itself, exuding those waves of heat which distort the sight and bring weakness to the body; the other attributes of the great highway too numerous to give name. And then it crossed it." -- J.R.R. Tolkein
