“The infinite is in the finite of every instant”
Zen Proverb
“Any language is necessarily a finite system applied with different degrees of creativity to an infinite variety of situations, and most of the words and phrases we use are ''prefabricated'' in the sense that we don't coin new ones every time we speak.”
David Lodge
“I believe every human has a finite number of heartbeats. I don't intend to waste any of mine”
Neil Armstrong
“Ask what Time is, it is nothing else but something of eternal duration become finite, measurable and transitory.”
William Law
“It's still a small town in many respects, and there's a finite amount of dollars.”
Darrin Smith
“There are only a finite number of business activities and ways of measuring them. We can cover almost 80 percent of any business with our core model. The goal is to enable a business consultant who isn't a developer to implement the full solution without going back to a developer.”
Daniel Schwartz
“In the short run, say a few weeks or months, there is likely to be only a finite number of people who know how to prune grape vines, for example. So even if the wage went up a bit, not many more people would be available and qualified. Given more time or some advanced information that substantially higher wages would be available, many more people would be available and the shortage would disappear at the higher wage. But, currently, there has not been time for the wage to rise sufficiently and no one knows if the market will remain tight long enough for the wages to adjust.”
