"nullus Angelus pertingit ad perfectionem Dei, sed in infinitum distat"
no angel attains to the perfection of God, but is forever infinitely distant from [it]
St. Thomas Aquinas, Summa theologiae I-II.50.6.Resp., trans. FEDP (i.e. Shapcote). "in infinitum" can have a temporal as well as a "spatial" sense.
