Laziness is pervasive in Haskell, for all computation (unless you force it
off with special constructs).

Laziness in Clojure is as pervasive as sequences, but it is not for all
computation like in Haskell, and sequences have the previously-mentioned
features of sometimes-more-eager-than-the-minimum required.

Self-referential lazy sequences are something I would recommend actively
avoiding in Clojure, unless you want to live with buggy code, or dig into
the implementation and convince yourself that you are within its behavior
(which can change from version to version).
