No matter how fast you are travelling, relative to how you started, you will still measure the speed of light traveling away from you at c. So basically, no matter how fast you get going, you are essentially never any closer to getting to close to the speed of light, since you will always...

It stems from a derivation using Maxwell's equations. Long story short, you end up with: c = 1/√[μ*ε] Where μ and ε are the permeability and permittivity of free space, both of which are contants, thus c is constant as well. That is where c comes into play from a mathematical standpoin.
