@Kalenda gives explanations and some examples of using the to-infinitive in the post:
Can I start a sentence with To + verb?
To question one's existence would be natural
To start a sentence with an infinitive is bizarre
To talk to one's boss in the morning is every employee's desire
I wonder: Is the length of subjects before / complements etc after the 'be' critical here? Say,
To speak of ... [long subject] ... is ... long complement
.
Is this good in English? I met examples when the first complement in To speak of ... is ...
was very long.
