My range is limited.

You can’t have a relationship with a device whose limits are unknown to you, because without limits, it keeps becoming something else.

Just because you like my stuff doesn’t mean I owe you anything.

As the father of eight children, I’m quite convinced that each individual arrives here with their own unique personality. We are intended here from an invisible held of infinite potentiality. That which has no form, has no boundaries – it’s the I that’s in the ever-changing body.

Life could be wonderful if people would leave you alone.

When I was five, I think, that’s when I started wanting to be an actress. I loved to play. I didn’t like the world around me because it was kind of grim, but I loved to play house. It was like you could make your own boundaries.

Genres aren’t closed boxes. Stuff flows back and forth across the borders all the time.

There was one incident at a movie theater where my girl got mad at these guys who were talking behind us. I never looked back there, but she was like, ‚Will you all just shut up!‘ And I just got up and moved three rows in front. She was like, ‚What are you doing?!‘ I was like, ‚You better get up here! I don’t play the fighting games.‘

The unsaid rule for living in a trailer park is: ‚If the door’s shut, don’t come a-knockin.‘ But if it’s open and you’re walkin‘ by, feel free to say, ‚Hello.‘

When ignorance gets started it knows no bounds.

I always tell young girls, surround yourself with goodness. I learned early on how to get the haters out of my life.

You should not have taken advantage of my sensibility to steal into my affections without my consent.

I don’t see any boundaries between any of the art forms. I think they all inter-relate completely.

Love is the capacity to take care, to protect, to nourish.

People have this capacity within them to set the world straight.

I love the attention but I don’t like too much of it.

Most human beings have an almost infinite capacity for taking things for granted.

Genius is an infinite capacity for taking pains.

The things most people want to know about are usually none of their business.

There is a boundary to men’s passions when they act from feelings; but none when they are under the influence of imagination.

Never, and I mean never, allow anyone else’s ideas of who you can or can’t become sully your dream or pollute your imagination. This is your territory, and a ‚Keep Out‘ sign is a great thing to erect at all entrances to your imagination.

Guarding your heart and protecting your dignity are a little bit more important than clarifying the emotions of someone who’s only texting you back three words. I’ve learned that from trying to figure out people who don’t deserve to be figured out.

Genius at first is little more than a great capacity for receiving discipline.

The boundaries which divide Life from Death are at best shadowy and vague. Who shall say where the one ends, and where the other begins?

I think everyone should approach relationships from the perspective of playing it straight and giving someone the benefit of the doubt. Until he establishes that this is a game. And if it’s a game, you need to win. The best thing to do is just walk away from the table.

Being a child at home alone in the summer is a high-risk occupation. If you call your mother at work thirteen times an hour, she can hurt you.

I only wish that ordinary people had an unlimited capacity for doing harm; then they might have an unlimited power for doing good.

I think frugality drives innovation, just like other constraints do. One of the only ways to get out of a tight box is to invent your way out.

Children are a wonderful gift. They have an extraordinary capacity to see into the heart of things and to expose sham and humbug for what they are.

You cannot mix sports with politics.

Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love ourselves, even when we risk disappointing others.

I’m sure the feeling of fear, as long as you can take advantage of it and not be rendered useless by it, can make you extend yourself beyond what you would regard as your capacity. If you’re afraid, the blood seems to flow freely through the veins, and you really do feel a sense of stimulation.

One aged man – one man – can’t fill a house.

The moment someone asks you to do something you don’t have the time or inclination to do is fraught with vulnerability.

A diplomatic solution that puts significant and verifiable constraints on Iran’s nuclear program represents the best and most sustainable chance to ensure that America, Israel, the entire Middle East will never be menaced by a nuclear-armed Iran.

Men must know their limitations.

I’ve had just about everything punched. I’ve had things grabbed that just shouldn’t be grapped.

The fault lines are shifting from the boundaries of nations into the web of our societies and the streets of our cities. And, terrorism and extremism are a global force that are larger than their changing names, groups, territories and targets.

I am not very good with relationships. With anyone. I can’t be locked up with anyone for too long.

I don’t want to do free jazz! Because free jazz – which is the musical equivalent of free marketeering – isn’t actually free at all. It’s just constrained by what your muscles can do.

I think my first album opened a lot of doors for me to push the freedom of speech to the limit.

I’m not searching for hard news; I’m not a journalist, but I’m interested in pushing to boundaries of where we can do the kind of stories that we want to do. I mean, it’s a big world and CNN has made it a lot bigger and they haven’t flinched.

Liberty must be limited in order to be possessed.

Art consists of limitation. The most beautiful part of every picture is the frame.

If one oversteps the bounds of moderation, the greatest pleasures cease to please.

I know that one of the great arts that the writer develops is the art of saying, ‚No. No, I’m finished. Bye.‘ And leaving it alone. I will not write it into the ground. I will not write the life out of it. I won’t do that.

Iran has little capacity to deploy force. Its strategic doctrines are defensive, designed to deter invasion long enough for diplomacy to set it.

Wisdom is nothing but a preparation of the soul, a capacity, a secret art of thinking, feeling and breathing thoughts of unity at every moment of life.

Please think of me like an endangered species and just observe me quietly from far away. If you try to talk to me or touch me casually, I may get intimidated and bite you. So please be careful.

Relationships based on obligation lack dignity.

The capacity of the female mind for studies of the highest order cannot be doubted, having been sufficiently illustrated by its works of genius, of erudition, and of science.

There are three methods to gaining wisdom. The first is reflection, which is the highest. The second is limitation, which is the easiest. The third is experience, which is the bitterest.

What’s right about America is that although we have a mess of problems, we have great capacity – intellect and resources – to do some thing about them.

The minute you start compromising for the sake of massaging somebody’s ego, that’s it, game over.

Ultimately, who you choose to be in a relationship with and what you do in your bedroom is your business.

There are always people always asking you for something. But I feel like I have a foundation. I have a supporting cast where it doesn’t bother me too much.

What I tell my kids is, ‚I’m preparing you for college and for life. So, having independence, knowing how to set your own boundaries, figuring out how to make that balance. We still have screen-time rules.‘

Go up close to your friend, but do not go over to him! We should also respect the enemy in our friend.

Everything has its limit – iron ore cannot be educated into gold.

As soon as I go out into the world, I belong, in a way, to everyone else. It’s legal to follow me. It’s legal to stalk me at the beach. And I can’t call the police or ask them to leave.

The solar system can support a trillion humans. And then we’d have a thousand Mozarts and a thousand Einsteins.
