LIMIT and OFFSET Clauses
`LIMIT` is an output modifier. Logically it is applied at the very end of the query. The `LIMIT` clause restricts the amount of rows fetched. The `OFFSET` clause indicates at which position to start reading the values, i.e., the first `OFFSET` values are ignored.  
Note that while `LIMIT` can be used without an `ORDER BY` clause, the results might not be deterministic without the `ORDER BY` clause. This can still be useful, however, for example when you want to inspect a quick snapshot of the data.
