“Occam's Razor is a term plagiarized by the fact it is not easy to find its source and meaning. My attempts to find an author lead me nowhere, and I can only find unsatisfactory descriptions of how it works. Therefore, it is meaningless to me and I will use it as a placeholder to define: That which is unnecessary tends to be false. Necessity is by purpose. Therefore, purpose writes itself. Now, I have a tool.” — Michael Brett Turner
