Infinite monkey theorem.
 
"The infinite monkey theorem states that a monkey hitting keys at random on a typewriter keyboard for an infinite amount of time will almost surely type any given text, such as the complete works of William Shakespeare."

(—many sources) Another adds "infinite number of monkeys."

Seems like a lot of them are at work nowadays.

It will only work if you have infinite time. The human mind can't really fathom infinite time. Billions or 10s of billion's of years is just a number to most humans. Start getting into to a Googolplex and it is a number so big it just boggles the mind. So a googolplex of years is not even the start of infinity.

Well, it states "an infinite amount of time."

I wonder how this works for photographs. Shall we give an infinite number of moneys cameras?

Being silly here.

Just look how well it's worked, right here on this forum, in the limited amount of time our small group of monkeys have been at it. I swear this place has captured the wisdom of the ages, in its own special way... ;)

What you also need is "randomly typing" monkeys.

Monkeys, are not random.

Give them a keyboard, and they'll bias to certain things.

Like pooping on it.

You will never get the works of shake spear with infinite time because monkeys are not random.
