Quotations regarding 'Control'

Choose a letter: 
I think people are going to have a choice to make in the fall. But I think there's no doubt there are enough seats in play that could cause Republicans to gain control. There's no doubt about that.
Robert Gibbs, American Public Servant (1971-  )
They're after one world religion and one world government. That's why they've attacked the Catholic Church so strongly, to ultimately take control over it by their doctrine.
Hutton Gibson, American Writer (1918-  )
The rise of King Crimson was so fast that, to me, it felt as if it was going out of control. And it was going so fast that I couldn't keep up with what was happening.
Michael Giles, English Musician (1942-  )
You get trapped by stories. Though I've got this reputation for being out of control, it's not true, it just happens to be a more interesting story than the truth.
Terry Gilliam, American Director (1940-  )
I got my head bashed in at a demonstration against the Vietnam War. Police were losing control because they were up against a world they really didn't understand.
Terry Gilliam, American Director (1940-  )
The emphasis must be not on the right to abortion but on the right to privacy and reproductive control.

So every day I'm mindful as I watch the Bush crowd extend their sway into policies of every imaginable variety, and over almost every square foot of earth, that the control of the American state is a matter of urgency.
Todd Gitlin, American Sociologist

We almost always have choices, and the better the choice, the more we will be in control of our lives.
William Glasser, American Psychologist
When the student has her voice under complete control, it is safe to take up the lyric repertoire of Mendelssohn, Old English Songs, etc. How simple and charming they are!
Alma Gluck, American Musician (1884-1938)
The only person who had any control was Jonathan Harris. His character was so flamboyant that he was able to make things happen. My character was fairly one-dimensional, so I had my relationship with Dr. Smith and with the family.
Mark Goddard, American Actor (1936-  )
I was supposed to have a relationship with Judy, but that never happened. Actors in series didn't have the control that they have today over their jobs.
Mark Goddard, American Actor (1936-  )
Anorexia, you starve yourself. Bulimia, you binge and purge. You eat huge amounts of food until you're sick and then you throw up. And anorexia, you just deny yourself. It's about control.
Tracey Gold, American Actress (1969-  )
I remember that all of a sudden, the car felt like I couldn't control it. It was absolutely the most horrifying experience. We rolled over, off the freeway. I think there was something wrong with the car.
Tracey Gold, American Actress (1969-  )
You may be leading, then you might be at the back of the pack trying to work your way up. It's just a constant reminder not to give up, and to know that God, in my mind, is really in control.
Jeff Gordon, American Athlete (1971-  )
Elektra has no control over the live show, at least.
Mike Gordon, American Musician (1965-  )
I think about death a lot, like I think we all do. I don't think of suicide as an option, but as fun. It's an interesting idea that you can control how you go. It's this thing that's looming, and you can control it.
Ryan Gosling, Canadian Actor (1980-  )
Eddie is a natural leader. Jeff and I have been very much in control of previous bands we've worked in. But the way Eddie grew into being the leader of this band was the most gradual, slow and respectful process that I've ever been involved in.
Stone Gossard, American Musician (1966-  )
Having removed the dictator, the allies have moved to put Iraqis in control of Iraq. Now, as they draft and ratify their Constitution, we will indeed see the character of a new Iraqi nation revealed through the principles it chooses to uphold.
Kay Granger, American Politician (1943-  )
I am drawn to writing and directing as it is most like the feeling I had when I was a teenager with my puppet theatre. You are more in control of everything and involved in every aspect of production, so more challenged and fulfilled.
Richard E. Grant, British Actor (1957-  )
