There is great danger in contemplating infinity. The great mathematicians that have gone down this path have not been able to return. Many of them have been declared insane. The problem lies in seeking an unfathomable answer. There is something inherently dangerous about an equivocal passion to know. I reflect on this danger, because I must be alert to it in my own life. Making peace with the unknowable is one of the ways to preserve my sanity.
