Occam's Razor
OCCAM's RAZOR*
If:
your husband works til ten
your wife has cramps again
your kid stays out all night
Things at work don’t seem just right
Reasons why may be a lot
while your gut ties up in knots
Easiest and often worst
Is the thing you think of first
Occam says:
Many reasons could explain
Why bad actions have been done
But the first that hits your brain
Usually is the accurate one
*Occam was a 14th century philosopher/scientist that said the simplest answer is the best--this was in reference to science as well as life
Razor: short concise answer
