Subject: A new game

I want to start a new game. In this game there is one question to be answered: "Why did the chicken cross the road"? The fun thing is: You answer the question in the style of a famous person. Here three examples:

Albert Einstein: "That the chicken crossed the road is relative; you might as well say the road crossed the chicken".

Sigmund Freud: "It was the Thanatos drive in the chicken that made it cross the road".

Arnold Schwarzenegger: "The chicken will be back".

Ah, I know an answer to this. It was in The Dark Tower novel series (the 4th book - Wizard and Glass). I don't think it is "the" answer though.

Here's my answer:

Jim Carrey: Because she couldn't cross the ocean.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez : "The chicken feared for it's life under the cruel oversight of a murderous chicken cooker cartel known as The KentuckyFryerKlan and we must provide it a path to asylum."

Random Riellor - Because its egg has a way to go before being able to cross it.

Trump: "Who said the chicken crossed the road? That's fake news! No one crossed the road. I would have known - I know everything. I don't, so no one did. I'll build a wall so chickens won't cross roads. It's a real problem. We should stop the chicken!"

Phillip K Dick - The chicken crossed the road by accident, but once there he seemed to be in an alternate reality from which he could look back and see that his previous life was no more than someone else's dream.

Marty Robbins: "Out through the back door of Rose's I ran,
                       Out where the chickens were tied.
                       I picked a good one, 
                       It looked like it could run!
                       Up on it's back and away I did ride!"

Annette von Droste-Hülsthoff:

"Das Huhn auf der Straße

O schaurig über die Straße zu gehn,
Wenn es wimmelt vom Heiderauche,
Sich wie Phantome die Dünste drehn
Und die Ranke häkelt am Strauche.

The Chicken on the Road

How dreadful it is to go across the street
When it is teeming with will o' the wisps
And mists are whirling like phantoms
As brambles are hooking on bushes"

                     Her coop is across the road though;
                     She will not see me crossing here
                     To watch her brood fill up with dough."

Every chicken crosses a road, uncertain, until another chicken crosses back.  Chickens who wish to cross will find another road.  At the crossing of the road, every chicken becomes a pedestrian.  - Plato

Stephen King :

He limped across the pen, his mangled beak showing the efforts of his survival. Inside his head, a buzzing, flashes of red fur, the dead eyes of 'the fox'. He leapt at the delusions each time, crashing down upon the hard surface twisting a wing, discarding feathers and flesh. He could see the curb just over the horizon. "Freedom...freedom" were the last thoughts as the taxi's tire squeezed it's tiny brain out through its eyes and beak.
