title: Split a string in python into only two parts starting from the left
body: <p>I have a string from <code>input()</code> that I would like to only split into two parts with the delimiter as a space, even though a space may occur more than twice.</p>
  
  <p>For instance, if the input string was </p>
  
  <pre><code>'acquire Wooden Shield'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>the resulting list I want would be </p>
  
  <pre><code>['acquire', 'Wooden Shield]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I would assume this is pretty simple to do, thanks.</p>
