    “in philosophy” :

    (…) expression “turtles all the way down” to indicate an explanatory failure based on an explanation that needs a potentially infinite series of additional explanations (…)

    See the TURTLE of Enormous Girth, On his shell he holds the Earth…

    From the Dark Tower novels if someone wonders. Also sort of It too. Stephen King, just in case, sure many didn’t want to Google.
