Or at least, not infinite, but as many as there are books on the shelves. Neil Gaiman

In the East -- especially in India -- I find that people are more content to just be, to just sit around under a banyan tree for half a day chatting to each other. We Westerners would probably call that wasting time. But there is value to it. Being with someone, listening wihtout a clock and without anticipation of... Mother Teresa
