What Came First?

What Came First the Chicken or the Egg? What these famous people might have said.

Donald Trump
I think the chicken came first, okay? It just makes sense. You need a chicken to lay an egg, right? It’s common sense, folks. And let me tell you, we’re going to make chickens great again.

Albert Einstein
“The answer, my friend, lies in the process of evolution. The egg, over countless generations, gradually transformed into what we recognize as the modern-day chicken. So, in the grand scheme of things, it was the egg that came first.”

Dr Seuss
“Oh, the question’s quite fun, a riddle, you see, Did the egg or the chick come to be?
In a world full of wonders, where whimsy takes flight, It doesn’t much matter, it’s all just delight!”

Colonel Sanders
“Well, darlin’, I reckon it’s the chicken that came first. After all, without the chicken, there’d be no finger-lickin’ good fried chicken for folks to enjoy!”

Confucius
“Seek harmony in the question, not the answer.”

Yoda
“Mmm, the egg, young one, came first it did. The cycle of life, it is. In the egg, the potential lies, for the chick to hatch and the Force to flow. A question of beginnings, it is not, but of the Force’s eternal flow, it is.”

Ann Landers
“Well, dear, it’s quite simple. The egg came first. Nature always starts with the basics.”

Paul Harvey
“And now you know the rest of the story: the egg came first, for within its fragile shell lies the promise of life, the beginning of a new chapter in the grand story of our world.”

Mark Twain
“Why, the egg, of course! It had to hatch into a chick eventually.” 

Sherlock Holmes
“Elementary, my dear Watson. The egg, as it represents the initial stage of life’s development, logically precedes the chick.”

Jim Gaffigan
Well, you see, it’s a lot like that late-night pizza dilemma. Does it matter who came first when you’re hungry?” 

The Contest Winner

Pile of money

I read a book a few years ago about a family with ten children from Defiance, Ohio. The father was a drunk and the mother helped supplement the family income by entering contests. Many of the contests were, “In 25 words or less tell us why…. “You like our peanut butter.” Whatever the contest was that week, she would enter. The entire family would get involved by finding entrance forms for every contest possible and finding labels that needed to be attached to the entrance forms. Mom would fill out multiple contest forms with all the kids names on the forms to increase her families chances of winning. Over the years the family won dozens of prizes. Two prizes were cars and the last prize was valued at more than $10,000 dollars. The thing that I find so interesting is the families last contest won, saved their home from getting foreclosed with just hours to spare. I believe this family knew their mom could win this contest. With the power of the entire family believing this miracle would happen, it became a reality. With God nothing is impossible. Their inner belief system created what seemed an impossibility. Nothing is a coincidence in the eyes of God. Albert Einstein said, “Your imagination is a preview of what is to come.”
