What's that query limit again?

Greetings,

The query limit is 8K right?  What about the size of rows returned by a
select?  If it is 8K too, then how might I be sure I can get all the
results of a row that has several "text" fields?  The user may type more
than 8K total across all the fields...

I'm trying to avoid large objects.

Thanks,
Matthew
