Extensive Quotes

Paul Theroux quote: "Extensive traveling induces a feeling of encapsulation, and..."
Extensive traveling induces a feeling of encapsulation, and travel, so broadening at first, contracts the mind. Paul Theroux
Extension work is not exhortation. Nor is it exploitation of the people, or advertising of an institution, or publicity work for securing students. It is a plain, earnest, and continuous effort to meet the needs of the people on their own farms and in the localities. Liberty Hyde Bailey
Of all man’s instruments, the most wondrous, no doubt, is the book. The other instruments are extensions of his body.

In America journalism is apt to be regarded as an extension of history: in Britain, as an extension of conversation. Anthony Sampson
My thing is related to who I am as a person. The clothes are an extension of me. The music is an extension of me. All my businesses are part of the culture, so I have to stay true to whatever I'm feeling at the time, whatever direction I'm heading in. And hopefully, everyone follows. Jay-Z
Two-thirds of American movies are extensions of commercials? they tell you how to feel and they tell you how to think? rather than letting you figure it out on your own," said Arkin, who has been acting since the 1960s and won the supporting actor Oscar for "Little Miss Sunshine." "Ben treats the audience like adults. He doesn't shove you into endless close-ups, and the music doesn't tell you what's going to happen next, which is something I hate in American movies. Alan Arkin
Oswald Spengler quote: "History is direction—but Nature is extension—ergo, everyone..."
History is direction—but Nature is extension—ergo, everyone gets eaten by a bear. Oswald Spengler
At night the sky was very near, sprawled in star smoke and gamma cataclysms, but she didn't see it the way she used to, as soul extension, dumb guttural wonder, a thing that lived outside language in the oldest part of her. Don DeLillo
Our library isn't very extensive," said Anne, "but every book in it is a friend. We've picked our books up through the years, here and there, never buying one until we had first read it and knew that it belonged to the race of Joseph. L. M. Montgomery
