Original artwork, not a still
So you understand the idea. Congratulations, Bill. Now multiply that by infinity, take that to the depth of forever, and you still will barely have a glimpse of what I’m talking about.

Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker acknowledges Bill understanding an idea, then immediately expands its scale beyond any ordinary measure. Infinity and forever make even that understanding seem tiny. The exaggerated comparison presents the subject as something Bill can only glimpse, despite the initial words of congratulation.
