You can have as many as you like.

On a personal opinion note, I am not a big fan of too many plugins. Not all of them are updated frequently or have trouble when you upgrade to newer versions of WP. i.e., instead of using the plugin for Google Analytics, why not just hard-code it right in, etc.

My advice is always check how well the plugin is m anaged, google it for problems, etc. before using one.

As racer x said, there is no limit to the plugin you can use, however, some plugins may slow down your blogs, so why not just pick the ones needed so much.

No limit but i recommended you to do not use lots of plugins because lots of plugins increase website opening speed

and you need to maintain your plugin(Check Updates)

- Lots of risk

make sure you go through your plugin code so one plugin doesn't interrupt another plugin (this is common in plugins which modify your database or template, but not very common - if you understand what I just said).

Only Use the plugins needed to run your blog properly. The only limits will be in your hosting type, speed, space etc.

Of course not, there is no need to cap a limit if you host the blog yourself. However if you add too many plugins it really will slow down the loading of the site, so just be cautious.

No limits. But make sure you have the right plugins and the once you need. Because most of the plugins slows down the site.

There's no limit but there will be a potential headaches you'll be facing of having many plugins. Because some plugins takes a bit of memory.

Definitely there is no limit. However, it definitely slows your blog significantly when you add a lot of plugins. Also, the more you add, the more you open up your blog to potential security leaks.

You can use as many as you like as long as there available space on your hosting.

You would limit it yourself, when you feel that your blog is slowing down and the plugins are giving a real heavy load on the blog.
These plugins when in a number of 20 or more are very heavy already, so take care about the hosting too and take care that your don't disrupt the blog load speed and your readers' interest due to it, just by installing more and more plugins for no use.

Also, if you have the plugins in your directory and not installed, it would still put the load. So better delete the plugins which you are not actively using.
