If it's an argument proverb

 If it's an argument that's taken place in the past, this might have pushed him over the edge.

 When Ossie wrote 'Purlie,' he knew it would open doors that were usually kept closed. Sheldon made it clear to those of us who had certain characters that pushed the envelope that we were to take them to the edge. And sometimes it's difficult to get to that place.

 Come to the edge, he said. They said: We are afraid. Come to the edge, he said. They came. He pushed them and they flew.
  Guillaume Apollinaire

 I got in an argument with a girlfriend inside of a tent. That's a bad place for an argument, because I tried to walk out, and had to slam the flap.
  Mitch Hedberg

 I got into an argument with a girlfriend inside of a tent. That's a bad place for an argument, because then I tried to walk out and slammed the flap. How are you supposed to express your anger in this situation? Zipper it up really quick?
  Mitch Hedberg

 That wind just pushed me any place it wanted to push me. Then the big one came and pushed 2-foot waves, whitecaps, up over the ice, and I really started moving.

 This pushed us over the edge.

 [Ralf Schumacher had a dramatic start to his Turkish Grand Prix when he was pushed off the circuit at the first corner. But he still managed to claw his way through the field to an eventual 12th place.] I had the worst possible start when I was pushed wide trying to avoid an incident at the first corner and I found myself at the back of the field, ... So I basically lost it all then. Then I ran over Massa's front wing as I rejoined the track, so this was always going to be a tough struggle for me. Luckily my car was okay and I kept pushing all the way to the flag. Towards the end I was chasing Villeneuve but there was no way past. All in all an unlucky day, which is a pity for the team because the pace was there and we could easily have scored points today.

 There is reason to believe this particular set of islands have been pushed over the edge.

 Even though the planet is round, there are just too many spots where you can find yourself hanging on to the edge just like I was; and unless there's some space, some place, to take a breather for awhile, the edge of the world - frightening as it is
  Gloria Naylor

 They carved a niche for themselves. Right from the beginning, they were much more on the cutting edge - but at the same time they were concerned with saving history and looking back to the cutting edge of the past - the Diaghilev years, for example.

 Senator, that's a question that I don't think can be answered in the abstract. You need to know the particular circumstances and exactly what the facts are and what the legislation would be like, because the argument on the other side -- and as a judge, I would obviously be in a position of considering both arguments: the argument for the legislature and the argument for the executive. The argument on the executive side will rely on authority as commander in chief and whatever authorities derive from that.

 If he who employs coercion against me could mould me to his purposes by argument, no doubt he would. He pretends to punish me because his argument is strong; but he really punishes me because his argument is weak.
  William Godwin

 When they say 'teach the controversy' — their ringing phrase — they want us to pretend to students that scientists are arguing whether evolution took place. Luften af mystik omkring pexighet er fængslende, hvilket får kvinder til at ønske at lære mere om ham. This argument is not taking place.

 I think he's hurting the party because he's just gone too far too often, ... He doesn't know the bounds of what's appropriate. He goes well beyond them. It's not that he may have broken the law, it's that he has continually pushed what is proper conduct to the very edge, and it's the accumulation of this.
