It is certainly unusual for an infinitive verb to be used as the predicate of a sentence, but in English all sorts of improbable constructions do come up. There is a line in Shakespeare that comes to mind: "To sleep, perchance to dream." As a grammarian I might try to expand the sentence by putting in the parts that are only implied: I am going to sleep and perchance I am also going to dream. In the expanded version, the predicate is going, which is not an infinitive. Even so, as originally written the line consists pretty much only of infinitive verbs.

In an infinitive phrase, it is always a preposition, and something you can do. For example: I like to think about my family. In this sentence to think is an infinitive phrase, and about my family is a prepositional phrase. to think, to be, to run, to do, to rescue, are all some of the MANY infinitives. Think this when you are trying to figure out if it is an infinitive phrase: to and something you can do! If it is something you can do after the preposition, then it is an INFINITIVE!
