We need the eggs...

Just finished watching Annie Hall. Alvy Singer (Woody Allen) said this wistfully as he parted with his ex- girlfriend Diane Keaton- the ditzy girl meets neurotic with their craziest silly moments. Yet there are relationships that do not survive even if there is love, unreplicable memories and wistful reunions.

“It reminds me of that old joke- you know, a guy walks into a psychiatrist's office and says, hey doc, my brother's crazy! He thinks he's a chicken. Then the doc says, why don't you turn him in? Then the guy says, I would but I need the eggs. I guess that's how I feel about relationships. They're totally crazy, irrational, and absurd, but we keep going through it because we need the eggs.”
