| Nadya: | If so, it would have a nearly infinite number of pages. |
| Gus: | Most people readily describe things they cannot understand as "infinite". However, often they are actually very large, but finite. |
| Bill: | Whatever . . . my patience is finite and running out. |
| Gus: | (muttering to himself) What a lame conversation! |
| Liao: | (overhearing him) Relax. The outcome of the universe will not change an iota by the things we say. |
