I can see both sides of term limits, and I think, in different positions, term limits make more sense than in some others. Caroline Kennedy
I didn't want to make it a lifetime thing. I don't believe in statutory term limits, but people can limit themselves if they want to, and that's what I decided to do. George J. Mitchell
I've declined every congressional benefit I could decline, federal health insurance, the retirement program, the 403(b) program, which I think is overly generous. I've got self-imposed term limits of six terms if I have the privilege to serve that long. Scott Rigell

Terry Josephson quote: "Stop thinking in terms of limitations and start thinking in..."

And these two certainties--my appetite for the absolute and for unity and the impossibility of reducing this world to a rational and reasonable principle--I also know that I cannot... Albert Camus

There is no one, no entity or higher form that she can appeal to, or be reconciled with, or that can forgive her. There is nothing outside her. In her imagination she has set the limits and the terms. No atonement for God, or novelists, even if they are atheists. It was always an impossible task, and that was precisely the point.

C. S. Lewis quote: "Don't think of God in terms of forms, because forms are..."
Don't think of God in terms of forms, because forms are limited and God is unlimited. C. S. Lewis

We must search out totally new ways to anchor ourselves, for all the old roots - religion, nation, community, family, or profession - are now shaking under the hurricane impact of the accelerative thrust. It is no longer resources that limit decisions, it is the decision that makes the resources. Alvin Toffler
Murray Rothbard quote: "It is clearly absurd to limit the term 'education' to a..."
It is clearly absurd to limit the term 'education' to a person's formal schooling. Murray Rothbard
