I want to go _more_ than I ever did.

+Observe the distinction between the words _further_ and _farther_.+

Farther always refers to distance, or extent. For example:

He could go no farther that day.

We will go farther into the matter some other time.

Further means more. For example:

He would say nothing further in regard to the subject.

+Never use _good_ as an adverb+. _Good_ is always an adjective. _Well_

is the adverb form. _Good_ and _well_ are compared in the same way,

_good_, _better_, _best_, and _well_, _better_, _best_. So _better_ and

_best_ can be used either as adjectives or adverbs; but _good_ is always

an adjective. Do not say, _He talks good_. Say, _He talks well_. Note

that _ill_ is both an adjective and an adverb and that _illy_ is always

incorrect.
