Stephen Hawking recently wrote that he now believes a "Theory of Everything" to be unattainable, due to the paradox that we cannot remove ourselves, as observers, from the physical universe which we are a part of.
Something like this realization, that we are our own biggest obstacle to understanding, is what I believe Zappa refers to in my signature quote. I think what he means is, you have to free yourself from convention in order to achieve anything of consequence.
