God has placed no limits to the exercise of the intellect he has given us, on this side of the grave.
Francis Bacon, English Philosopher (1561-1626)
Europe has what we do not have yet, a sense of the mysterious and inexorable limits of life, a sense, in a word, of tragedy. And we have what they sorely need: a sense of life's possibilities.
James Baldwin, American Educator
It is only in his music, which Americans are able to admire because a protective sentimentality limits their understanding of it, that the Negro in America has been able to tell his story.
James Baldwin, American Educator
The One, the Good, the True, and the Beautiful, these are what we call the transcendental attributes of Being, because they surpass all the limits of essences and are coextensive with Being.
Hans Urs von Balthasar, Swiss Theologian (1905-1988)

Juliette Binoche, French Actress (1964-  )
It's always the minorities who aren't a part of the mainstream who define what the limits... of the majority are going to be.
Rose E. Bird, -
We trifle when we assign limits to our desires, since nature hath set none.

Dylan, myself and my father were in a two hour movie called The Sand Kings, which started off the Outer Limits series. It was sort of the two hour pilot movie.
Beau Bridges, American Actor (1941-  )
The only limits are, as always, those of vision.
James Broughton, American Director (1913-1999)
I must be free... free to do what I like, say what I like, write what I like, within the limits prescribed for me by my own sense of what is seemly and fitting.
Thomas Edward Brown, British Poet (1830-1897)
The only limits to the possibilities in your life tomorrow are the buts you use today.
Les Brown, American Businessman
As a consequence, the Court ruled that the limits on campaign spending violated the First Amendment, but it accepted the $1,000 limit on individual contributions on the ground that the need to avoid the appearance of corruption justified this limited constraint on speech.
James L. Buckley, American Politician (1923-  )
One camp accepts the Court's limits on contributions but urges the reinstatement of spending caps - even if this requires a constitutional amendment subjecting political speech, if not pornography, to government regulation.
James L. Buckley, American Politician (1923-  )
The national will is the supreme law of the Republic, and on all subjects within the limits of his constitutional powers should be faithfully obeyed by the public servant.
Martin Van Buren, American President (1782-1862)
If laws acting upon private interests can not always be avoided, they should be confined within the narrowest limits, and left wherever possible to the legislatures of the States.
Martin Van Buren, American President (1782-1862)
