Famous quotes containing the word limits:

    “I fear chiefly lest my expression may not be extra-vagant enough, may not wander far enough beyond the narrow limits of my daily experience, so as to be adequate to the truth of which I have been convinced.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The limits of prudence: one cannot jump out of a burning building gradually.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “We know then the existence and nature of the finite, because we also are finite and have extension. We know the existence of the infinite and are ignorant of its nature, because it has extension like us, but not limits like us. But we know neither the existence nor the nature of God, because he has neither extension nor limits.”
    —Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
