• I want a girl with extensions in her hair,
  Bamboo earrings, at least two pair,
  A Fendi bag and a bad attitude,
  That's all I need to get me in a good mood.
  She can walk with a switch and talk with street slang,
  I love it when a woman ain't scared to do her thing.

  LL Cool J

  You are supposed to enrich
  the other person's poem with your extensions,
  your uniquely personal understandings,
  thus making the poem serve you.

• I still do not know what impels anyone sound of mind to leave dry land and spend a lifetime describing people who do not exist.

• Lenny Breau was a genius - inspired and really loose. I loved how he used the guitar as an extension of his inner freedom, because, obviously, on the outside there were a lot of trainwrecks going on. But when you listen to him play, you hear what kind of guy he really is

• I never got tired of watching the radar echo from an aircraft as it first appeared as a tiny blip in the noise on the cathode-ray tube, and then grew slowly into a big deflection as the aircraft came nearer. This strange new power to "see" things at great distances, through clouds or darkness, was a magical extension of our senses. It gave me the same thrill that I felt in the early days of radio when I first heard a voice coming out of a horn.

• When I am high I couldn't worry about money of I tried. So I don't. The money will come from from somewhere; I am entitled; God will provide. Credit cards are disastrous, personal checks worse. Unfortunately, for manics anyway, mania is a natural extension of the economy.

• I'd been a child during the 1960s when women burned their bras and hundreds of thousands gathered in protests against the Vietnam War. As a climber, I've felt connected to a similar nonconformist culture, one opposed to society's increasing materialism, pollution and corruption. Our approach to the rock—clean, traditional climbing, with the least dependence on equipment—was an extension of this ethical viewpoint.
