If f is a nontrivial automorphism of a thick building Delta of purely
infinite type, we prove that there is no bound on the distance that f moves a
chamber. This has the following group-theoretic consequence: If G is a group of
automorphisms of Delta with bounded quotient, then the center of G is trivial.
