“People prefer finite ideas. They’re easier to understand, and having all the loose ends nicely wrapped up makes people feel more comfortable . . . more in control. Certain. It makes them feel less vulnerable to the unknown. The infinite, on the other hand, makes them more likely to tie themselves into knots, trying to define that which cannot be defined rather than accept an unknown. Still, energy, space, and time aren’t finite; they’re infinite. They can’t be wrapped up nicely in a box.” — Charlie Bynar
