“You can divide infinity an infinite number of times, and the resulting pieces will still be infinitely large,” Uresh said in his odd Lenatti accent. “But if you divide a non-infinite number an infinite number of times the resulting pieces are non-infinitely small. Since they are non-infinitely small, but there are an infinite number of them, if you add them back together, their sum is infinite. This implies any number is, in fact, infinite.”
“Wow,” Elodin said after a long pause. He leveled a serious finger at the Lenatti man. “Uresh. Your next assignment is to have sex. If you do not know how to do this, see me after class.”

“به کجا چنین شتابان؟
گون از نسیم پرسید
- دل من گرفته زین جا
هوس سفر نداری
ز غبار این بیابان؟
- همه آرزویم اما
چه کنم که بسته پایم.
به کجا چنین شتابان؟
- به هر آن کجا که باشد
به جز این سرا، سرایم
- سفرت به خیر اما تو و دوستی، خدا را
چو از این کویر وحشت به سلامتی گذشتی
به شکوفه‌ها، به باران
برسان سلام ما را”

“To wisely live your life, you don't need to know much
Just remember two main rules for the beginning:
You better starve, than eat whatever
And better be alone, than with whoever.”
― Omar Khayyám, Rubaiyat
