Quotations regarding 'Control'

There can be no intelligent control of the lead danger in industry unless it is based on the principle of keeping the air clear from dust and fumes.
Alice Hamilton, American Scientist (1869-1970)
In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men the great difficulty lies in this: You must first enable the government to control the governed, and in the next place, oblige it to control itself.
Alexander Hamilton, American Politician (1755-1804)
You control your future, your destiny. What you think about comes about. By recording your dreams and goals on paper, you set in motion the process of becoming the person you most want to be. Put your future in good hands - your own.
Mark Victor Hansen, American Businessman
Radio is a really strange business now, too. There's a very narrow door and a very few people control what gets played.
Taylor Hanson, American Musician (1983-  )
It is a mistake to think that we can control the breeding of mankind in the long run by an appeal to conscience.
Garrett Hardin, American Environmentalist (1915-2003)
The dripping... well, if it happens, it happens; it does not take anything from the work. The dripping just proves that you were not trying to control the work, but the work was developing by itself and if it drips, it's a natural part in the evolution of the work.
Keith Haring, American Artist (1958-1990)
I think you have to control the materials to an extent, but it's important to let the materials have a kind of power for themselves; like the natural power of gravity, if you are painting on a wall, it makes the paint trickle and it drips; there is no reason to fight that.
Keith Haring, American Artist (1958-1990)
Poland, of course, was the key country. I remember Stalin telling me that the plains of Poland were the invasion route of Europe to Russia and always had been, and therefore he had to control Poland.
W. Averell Harriman, American Politician (1891-1986)
I have more artistic control in a smaller show. But it doesn't really matter. Sometimes you can have the smallest role in the smallest production and still make a big impact.
Neil Patrick Harris, American Actor (1973-  )
We get more dangerous as we accumulate knowledge, and that's both a sadness and something to control, try to learn to live with, make terms with.
Lou Harrison, American Composer (1917-2003)
The poor tread lightest on the earth. The higher our income, the more resources we control and the more havoc we wreak.
Paul Harrison, -
There are so many venues in which stars are exposed today, that we just know much more and the studios don't have the control over stars like they used to, in the 30s, 40s, and 50s.
Mary Hart, American Entertainer (1950-  )
The federal government seeks to control and regulate the Internet, but the last thing this Congress should be doing is trying to stifle public debate online.
Dennis Hastert, American Politician (1942-  )
As soon as man began considering himself the source of the highest meaning in the world and the measure of everything, the world began to lose its human dimension, and man began to lose control of it.
Vaclav Havel, Czechoslovakian Leader (1936-  )
This means that to entrust to science - or to deliberate control according to scientific principles - more than scientific method can achieve may have deplorable effects.
Friedrich August von Hayek, Austrian Economist (1899-1992)
As a result, the highly civilized man can endure incomparably more than the savage, whether of moral or physical strain. Being better able to control himself under all circumstances, he has a great advantage over the savage.
Lafcadio Hearn, Japanese Author (1850-1904)
The more prepared I am, the more I'll be in control, less nervous, less stressed and more focused.
Marilu Henner, American Actress (1952-  )
I also think stress is related to control. When you're in charge of your life, you tend to not care about losing control of things that don't really matter like traffic jams.
Marilu Henner, American Actress (1952-  )
Being in control of your life and having realistic expectations about your day-to-day challenges are the keys to stress management, which is perhaps the most important ingredient to living a happy, healthy and rewarding life.
Marilu Henner, American Actress (1952-  )
To do the same thing over and over again is not only boredom: it is to be controlled by rather than to control what you do.
Heraclitus, Greek Philosopher
