Thinking infinitely

Looking infinitely: I was just reading a Cosmos magazine story about the possibility of there being something large (another universe?) outside the known universe. I didn't realize we knew how big the universe was. Anyway, this Albert Einstein quote seemed appropriate for the occasion.
"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."
Here's another quote about an infinite universe, this one by Woody Allen:
"Astronomers say the universe is finite, which is a comforting thought for those people who can't remember where they leave things."
 You can find more thoughts on the universe at mapping.com.
