control

He only wanted to use me for something. Everyone wanted to use you for some purpose.

The fact that you can act with love even when you don__ feel love is very empowering. Why? Because whereas the feelings of love are fleeting and largely out of your control, you can take the actions of love anytime and anyplace for the whole rest of your life.

Love isn__ about predictions or behavioural markers. It just happens, and you have no control.

this very act of consenting to its loss of control is itself the critical event of all crisis. To give up ones stature as the director of ones own existance: this is, for us, the ultimate death, the crisis that undermines our being in the most radical way.

We are so busy attempting to manage the result that we fail simply to run the race.

You know where I__ going to be, and you__l know where I__e been every step of my way to get there. You__e made a hobby out of taking things away from me_ a lot of them I never even knew to miss, but I know now. I know what you just took, and there__ no way you__e taking anything else from me. It__ time for me to start taking from you,_ Wednesday said with a confidence in her voice that even she noticed and was proud to hear.__ thought you said you weren__ running from me anymore,_ Klein said with a laugh in his voice.Her face was red, and she felt like she was on fire. She managed, summoning all her will, to keep herself from screaming and instead, keep an even and icy voice. ____ not, you piece of shit. Now, I__ running at you.

Control is an advertising concept.

...this is a way of handling a fear of losing control. One way - which is perhaps not the best way - to try and regain control is to talk, talk, talk.Love Professor - to Jennifer

Keep your hand moving. (Don__ pause to reread the line you have just written. That__ stalling and trying to get control of what you__e saying.)

There is no such thing as control of a situation. If we try to do this, it turns back on us in negativity.

The idea of losing control is one that fascinates controlled people such as ourselves more than almost anything.

Given all that lies beyond mycontrol, I obsess about the few things I can control

This is what we are like. Collectively, as a species, this is our emotional landscape. I met an old lady once, almost one hundred years old, and she told me, "There are only two questions that human beings have ever fought over, all through history. How much do you love me? And Who's in charge?" Everything else is somehow manageable. But these two questions of love and control undo us all, trip us up and cause war, grief and suffering.

And once again, work is providing us with a comforting sense of normalcy-living and working inside of coding's predictably segmented time/space. Simply grinding away at something makes life feel stable, even though the external particulars of life (like our pay checks, our office, and so forth) are, at best, random.

Life is affected, even controlled by how thoughts are communicated in both words and actions.

The best way to control people is to encourage them to be mischievous...To give your sheep or cow a large, spacious meadow is the way to control him. So it is with people: first let them do what they want, and watch them... To ignore them is not good; that is the worst policy. The second worst is trying to control them. The best one is to watch them, just to watch them, without trying to control them.

You are in control of your life, when you refuse to be provoke.

See, I believe every woman has a bitch inside of her but not everyone has control of her bitch. My inner bitch is alive and present but she doesn__ control me_I control her.
