Please quote the relevant section.

Meanwhile, here's an extract from the GPL that might interest you: 

   These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
   identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
   and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
   themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
   sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
   distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
   on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms
   of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
   entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
   it.
