Draw the line
Meaning:
Define a threshold that can't be crossed without action or retaliation.
Example:
Smoking is okay if you are outside, but I draw the line at smoking in public places.
Origin:
Comes from one of the Psalms which contains a reference about "drawing a line in the sand" meaning to "proceed no further." It has been shortened to "draw the line." Thanks to RB Stevenson
