Ayn Rand

A chicken's first duty is to itself. And only by living for itself is it able to achieve the things which are the glory of chickenkind. Such is the nature of achievement.

Camille Paglia:

It was drawn by the subconscious chthonian power of the feminine which men can never understand, to cross the road and focus itself on its task.

You may be Ambassador-chicken to England or France,
You may like to gamble, you might like to dance,
You may be the heavyweight chickion of the world,
You may be a socialite with a long string of pearls

But you're gonna have to cross somebody, yes indeed
You're gonna have to cross somebody,
Well, it may be the Ditch or it may be the Road
But you're gonna have to cross somebody.
