Term Extension Act

Famous quotes containing the words term, extension and/or act:

    “Dead drunk
    is the term I think of,

    To be drunk is to be intimate with a fool.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “The medium is the message. This is merely to say that the personal and social consequences of any medium—that is, of any extension of ourselves—result from the new scale that is introduced into our affairs by each extension of ourselves, or by any new technology.”
    —Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)

    “quaking muscles in the act of birth,
    Between her legs a pigmy face appear,
    And the first murderer lay upon the earth.”
