Philosophy
Why did the chicken cross the road?
PLATO: For the greater good.
ARISTOTLE: It is the nature of chickens to cross the road.
MACHIAVELLI: The point is that the chicken crossed the road. Who cares why? The fact of crossing the road justifies whatever motive there was.
KANT: The chicken, being an autonomous being, chose to cross the road of his own free will.
MARX: It was an historical inevitability.
DARWIN: Chickens, over great periods of time, have been naturally selected in such a way that they are now genetically disposed towards crossing roads.
FREUD: The fact that you are at all concerned that the chicken crossed the road reveals your underlying sexual insecurity.
EINSTEIN: Whether the chicken crossed the road or the road crossed the chicken depends upon your frame of reference.
