"You can't expect a mother to be with a small child all the time",
Margaret Mead once remarked, with her usual good sense, but in 1978
she shocked feminists by snapping that women don't really have
children to put them in day care twelve hours a day, either.
                -- Caroline Bird, "The Two Paycheck Marriage"

You can't fall off the floor.

You can't get there from here.

You can't go home again, unless you set $HOME.

You can't have everything.  Where would you put it?
                -- Steven Wright

You can't have your cake and let your neighbor eat it too.
                -- Ayn Rand

You can't hug a child with nuclear arms.

You can't judge a book by the way it wears its hair.

You can't kiss a girl unexpectedly --
only sooner than she thought you would.

You can't learn too soon that the most useful thing about a principle
is that it can always be sacrificed to expediency.
                -- W. Somerset Maugham, "The Circle"
