“The only way to comprehend what mathematicians mean by Infinity is to contemplate the extent of human stupidity.”

“What does infinity mean to you? Are you not infinity and yourself?”

“To infinity then. (Bubba)What’s that mean? (Nick)It’s something my dad used to say when I was a kid. To infinity, meaning you’d see something through to the end. (Bubba)Infinity is never-ending. (Nick)That’s right, which means you keep going and going no matter what happens or what obstacles you meet. Over, under, around or through. There’s always a way. And if you have to chase something to infinity, strap on your big-boy pants, hiking boots, and go. (Bubba)”

“We are healthy only to the extent that our ideas are humane.”

“Plato offers the amazing idea that contemplation of the way things really are is, in itself, a purifying process that can bring human beings into the only divinity there is.”

“Contemplate the extent and stability of the heavens, and then at last cease to admire worthless things.”
