Text Quotes
The mechanism that directs government cannot be virtuous, because it is impossible to thwart every crime, to protect oneself from every criminal without being criminal too; that which directs corrupt mankind must be corrupt itself; and it will never be by means of virtue, virtue being inert and passive, that you will maintain control over vice, which is ever active: the governor must be more energetic than the governed  (In Control Quotes) When I fly in a helicopter, I insist there be two sets of controls, one for me in case something happens to the pilot. I’m no expert, but I know enough to at least get the thing on the ground. Nothing scares me like the thought of not being in control  (In Control Quotes) When I’m in management meetings when we’re deciding my future, those decisions are left up to me. I’m the one who has to go out and fulfill all these obligations, so I should be able to choose which ones I do or not. That’s the part of my life where I feel most in control  (In Control Quotes) Sin also carries on its war by entangling the affections and drawing them into an alliance against the mind. Grace may be enthroned in the mind, but if sin controls the affections, it has seized a fort from which it will continually assault the soul. Hence, as we shall see, mortification is chiefly directed to take place upon the affections  (In Control Quotes) Alone because love was one of those feelings that you could never have control of.

She had also learned what it was to cruelly land back on the earth with a thud  (In Control Quotes) Optimism sprouts from the knowledge that you are in control of your own life, not your past and not those around you. Part of being in control is taking responsibility for how you feel. This means not just admitting to uncomfortable feelings but then examining your circumstances to see what can be done to change these feelings at the source  (In Control Quotes) There comes a time when the body takes over the life. There comes a time when the body’s urges, the body’s needs, dictate the life. You have no idea you are giving the body the key. But you hand it over. And then it’s in control. You mess with the wiring and the wiring takes charge  (In Control Quotes) We don’t have a clue what’s really going down, we just kid ourselves that we’re in control of our lives while a paper’s thickness away things that would drive us mad if we thought about them for too long play with us, and move us around from room to room, and put us away at night when they’re tired, or bored  (In Control Quotes) Humility is the mother of all virtues. Humility says we are not in control, principles are in control, therefore we submit ourselves to principles. Pride says that we are in control, and since our values govern our behavior, we can simply do life our way  (In Control Quotes) Whether we are aware of it or not, whether we are in control of it or not, there is a first creation to every part of our lives. We are either the second creation of our own proactive design, or we are the second creation of other people’s agendas, of circumstances, or of past habits  (In Control Quotes) Have the courage to speak your mind and tell the truth from a position of love rather than anger or fear, being open to accept the views of others without feeling threatened or defeated, relinquishing the ego’s need to be in control by demonstrating the willingness to do whatever it takes to establish peace  (In Control Quotes) When he tries to extend his power over objects, those objects gain control of him. He who is controlled by objects loses possession of his inner self... Prisoners in the world of object, they have no choice but to submit to the demands of matter! They are pressed down and crushed by external forces: fashion, the market, events, public opinion. Never in a whole lifetime do they recover their right mind!... What a pity!  (In Control Quotes) In terms of the ego, most religions teach in some way that all of us must die before we die, and then we will not be afraid of dying. Suffering of some sort seems to be the only thing strong enough to destabilize our arrogance and our ignorance. I would define suffering very simply as whenever you are not in control  (In Control Quotes) The press gave me a voice too quickly, and that could have unsettled a man who had every right to feel he should be in control of the thing he had created  (In Control Quotes) I am being embezzled by a monstrous ring of accountants, estate planners and lawyers who are mercilessly slandering me and trying to kill my career and, I believe, murder me in order to gain control of my royalties  (In Control Quotes) No matter what you do, your person comes through. You can’t completely change yourself on the screen. I had in mind someone colder and more in control, but I couldn’t do it. This human note just crept in and maybe it’s better  (In Control Quotes) It’s just kind of empowering when you become a mother. You just get overwhelmed with this new confidence and you feel really in control of your life. It’s been beautiful  (In Control Quotes) I don’t want to see blood spewing out but I don’t mind it in controlled environment. Does it make me squeamish? No  (In Control Quotes) You’re the only one in control over your golf ball. It’s not like tennis: you’re hitting a shot and somebody’s hitting it back at you  (In Control Quotes) I’ve been on the computer a lot. They say that’s the cause of the soreness in my elbow. I’ll be in control. I spent four hours. Now, I’ll have to spend one hour and take it easy  (In Control Quotes) Because you are in control of your life. Don’t ever forget that. You are what you are because of the conscious and subconscious choices you have made  (In Control Quotes) ... As the world rapidly becomes a civilization of machines, the masters of machines will increasingly be the ones in control of the world  (In Control Quotes) My experience won this fight…. I knew I was in control. I was not scared. He was not hitting me with anything that was hurting me  (In Control Quotes) Men always believe they are in control of everything around them. When they find out they are not, they think they have failed, instead of learning a simple truth women already know  (In Control Quotes) Maintaining the illusion that I am in control is futile, lonely, and in the long run more always costly than the effort is worth  (In Control Quotes) Another good thing about being poor is that when you are seventy your children will not have declared you legally insane in order to gain control of your estate  (In Control Quotes) Even though worker capacity and motivation are destroyed when leaders choose power over productivity, it appears that bosses would rather be in control than have the organization work well  (In Control Quotes) Caution is the key to safe cycling. I’m aware that cars are bigger than me, but I feel quite safe. I’m in control, liberated and free, when I’m on my bike  (In Control Quotes) I loved the music, but the excesses of rock n’ roll never really appealed to me at all.
