If you bought the book from Amazon, you can retrieve your notes and highlights at kindle.amazon.com.
Also while the amount of 'highlighting' can be restricted, you can make as many Notes as you want (and delete highlights as you go along, since you generally have to highlight before you can create a note).
The Fire, Android and iOS apps have ability to copy text (without highlighting it), from whence you can switch to another app and Paste. I don't think there is any restriction on how much of that you can do, though admittedly I have not tested it (I have yet to run into a clipping limit). All of these devices (including Kindles) let you do screen captures, which are definitely unrestricted. So while these things are not the same as 'highlighting', they can be functionally just as good if not better for taking 'ownership' of your notes and highlights so that you can re-use them.
