Famous quotes containing the words practical and/or limitations:

    “Tried by a New England eye, or the more practical wisdom of modern times, they are the oracles of a race already in its dotage; but held up to the sky, which is the only impartial and incorruptible ordeal, they are of a piece with its depth and serenity, and I am assured that they will have a place and significance as long as there is a sky to test them by.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The only rules comedy can tolerate are those of taste, and the only limitations those of libel.”
    —James Thurber (1894–1961)
