Richard Feynman on the problem with why questions


Watch the entire video (via Farnam Street) or skip directly to the 98 sec mark for this summation: “And when you explain a why, you have to be in some framework that you allow something to be true. Otherwise, you’re perpetually asking why.”
Or, in other words, you have to explicitly or implicitly understand when to stop asking why.
