Answer:

Infinitive phrase.

Explanation:

In English grammar, an infinitive phrase is a verbal construction made up of the particle <u>to</u> and the base form of a verb, <u>with or without modifiers</u>, <u>complements, and objects</u>. Also called an infinitival phrase and a to-infinitive phrase.

An infinitive phrase can function as a noun, an adjective, or an adverb, and it can appear in <u>various places</u> in a sentence.

<u>Examples of Infinitive phrases:</u>

<em>The only way to never fail is to never attempt anything.</em>

(<em>unknown</em>)

“<em>To laugh is to live profoundly.</em>”

(Milan Kundera, <em>The Book of Laughter and Forgetting</em>, 1979)

"The specific images presented on film are often hard to remember in the same way that dreams are hard to remember."

(J. F. Pagel, <em>The Limits of Dream</em>. Academic Press, 2008)

"[N]ot everyone has the same ability to remember dreams."

(Peretz Lavie, <em>The Enchanted World of Sleep</em>. Yale University Press, 1996)

"In the course of my life I have often had to eat my words, and I must confess that I have always found it a wholesome diet."

(Winston Churchill, quoted in <em>Churchill by Himself</em> by Richard Langworth. PublicAffairs, 2008)

"I'm Luke Skywalker. I'm here to rescue you."

(Mark Hamill as Luke in <em>Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope</em>, 1977)
