It is only the finite that has wrought and suffered; the infinite lies stretched in smiling repose. - Ralph Waldo Emerson The thirst for the infinite proves infinity. - Victor Hugo Infinity is the retirement in which perfect love and wisdom only dwell with God. In infinity and eternity the skeptic sees an abyss in which all is lost. I see in them the residence of Almighty power, in which my reason and my wishes find equally a firm support. Here, holding by the pillars of heaven, I exist--I stand fast. - Henry Miller The finite is annihilated in the presence of infinity, and becomes a simple nothing. - Blaise Pascal That which we foolishly call vastness is, rightly considered, not more wonderful, not more impressive, than that which we insolently call littleness; and the infinity of God is not mysterious, it is only unfathomable, not concealed, but incomprehensible: it is a clear infinity, the darkness of the pure, unsearchable sea. - John Ruskin Finite mind cannot comprehend infinity. - Jeremiah Seed God has thickly strewn infinity with grandeur. - Alexander Smith
