And all dared to brave unknown terrors, to do mighty deeds, to boldly split infinitives that no man had split before--and thus was the Empire forged.

The man has a terrible bedside manner.

Despite centuries of English literature, the most famous split infinitive in all of history comes from Star Trek.
