Hell, infinite monkeys over a finite amount of time or finite monkeys over an infinite amount of time does the trick.

I was about to say...

An infinite amount of monkeys could (depending on how you make the rules) write Shakespeare within a second.

if each monkey just has to type one letter on a page and you just take a group of monkeys in a long line and you read each letter on the line you would read Shakespeare. It would be done in a second.
