This thread reminded me of a resonant thought from Milan Kundera's
The Unbearable Lightness of Being...has anyone else read this book?
"
The Darkness was pure, perfect, thoughtless, visionless; that darkness was without end, without borders; that darkness was the infinite we each carry within us. (Yes if you're looking for infinity, just close your eyes!)"
Whenever I think of infinity, for some reason I remember this quote, close my eyes and smile.
