I just went and got an agent because I thought I can create my own world - you can't right your own life, but you can escape to a world where you can have control. ~ Helena Bonham Carter
Life Control quotes by Helena Bonham Carter
My life didn't please me, so I created my life. ~ Coco Chanel
Life Control quotes by Coco Chanel
Death is an asshole. Regardless of illness or circumstance or gut feelings, you are never ready to accept never seeing someone again, to have nothing left but last conversations and memories. You are never ready to be left with how sick somebody looked, or the way they stood up and hugged you despite how dizzy and feverish they were. You are never ready to exist without a person you loved and still need. Death is a constant, but you are never ready…

But while it's scary and awful and exhausting and terrible, it's also comforting to have accepted that death will always be there and will always rip out your heart. It doesn't get easy, and it will find surprising new ways of debilitating you. But what does get simpler is your awareness of it – the reminder that you have gotten through it before, and you will get through it again, and it will never, ever be as bad as it is in the moment you are battling through. It will never hurt the way it did when you found out, and the ache will never be as painful as when you realize those were your last words to them. It won't be as painful forever…

So, no, we can't control death. But we can control how we breathe, how we act, the type of work we do. We can control what we say yes or no to, control who we choose to surround ourselves with, control the way we make the people we love feel. We can decide to be kind, to try our best, and to be honest. Those are the things that outlive us. When we're faced with the harshnes ~ Anne T. Donahue
Life Control quotes by Anne T. Donahue
In a cricket career, your life is in some ways controlled for you. You have no control over schedules, you have no control about where you want to play, you don't have control over that as a cricketer. ~ Rahul Dravid
Life Control quotes by Rahul Dravid
You can't control the fact that you are born a white man or born into wealth. When people say, 'Check your privilege,' they're saying, 'Acknowledge how these factors helped you move through life.' They're not saying apologize for it. ~ Roxane Gay
Life Control quotes by Roxane Gay
If you can't control your peanut butter, you can't expect to control your life. ~ Bill Watterson
Life Control quotes by Bill Watterson
You can't control the weather, but that doesn't stop some people from trying. ~ Frank Sonnenberg
Life Control quotes by Frank Sonnenberg
I have had no control over my life. I have lived in a complete bubble. They found me and picked me for the part. And now I'm desperately trying to find my way through it. ~ Emma Watson
Life Control quotes by Emma Watson
I definitely connected to the fact that life gets out of control and you end up doing things and wishing you were doing other things instead. ~ Adam Sandler
Life Control quotes by Adam Sandler
I'm fairly in control and I don't like to flirt particularly. I mean, obviously if I meet someone who I think is hot, of course I'll want to flirt with him, But in general I don't use it in day-to-day life. ~ Shirley Manson
Life Control quotes by Shirley Manson
I'm quite surprised at how out of control I can be on stage because, actually, I find I like to be in control in life. It's quite freeing, really. ~ Michelle Dockery
Life Control quotes by Michelle Dockery
Because we are afraid of life, we seek to control or master it. ~ Alexander Lowen
Life Control quotes by Alexander Lowen
Life comes with many challenges. The ones that should not scare us are the ones we can take on and take control of. ~ Angelina Jolie
Life Control quotes by Angelina Jolie
Try to control your anger before it burns your life. ~ Debasish Mridha
Life Control quotes by Debasish Mridha
One of the few things we can actually control in life is what we put in our bodies. I found that very empowering. ~ Sara Rue
Life Control quotes by Sara Rue
Taking on too much of other people's drama is just a poor excuse for not taking ownership and control over your own life. ~ Jose N Harris
Life Control quotes by Jose N Harris
To be honest, we have no control over what's going on with a movie, much less what people are going to think of it. Your whole life is wound up in it but you don't have control and you have to get used to being on that turbulent plane without trying to fly it. The less you think about all that the better. ~ Mike Mills
Life Control quotes by Mike Mills
I've worked too hard all my life to have my kids control my life. ~ Steve Schirripa
Life Control quotes by Steve Schirripa
As far as control and stuff is concerned, I never had any more in my life than for that All-Star game in 1934. ~ Carl Hubbell
Life Control quotes by Carl Hubbell
The cell, over the billions of years of her life, has covered the earth many times with her substance, found ways to control herself and her environment, and insure her survival. ~ Albert Claude
Life Control quotes by Albert Claude
All of a sudden you realise that you are the person who has control of your life. ~ Jim Henson
Life Control quotes by Jim Henson
I'm in control of my life, not anyone in Hollywood. ~ Heath Ledger
Life Control quotes by Heath Ledger
Getting paperwork under control makes me feel more in control of my life generally. ~ Gretchen Rubin
Life Control quotes by Gretchen Rubin
Emotion it self is blindfold. So one second of your life control by emotion it's the definition of selfishness. ~ Abraham Ruiz
Life Control quotes by Abraham Ruiz
You have to eventually grow up and take control of your life, which is very hard to do. ~ Farrah Fawcett
Life Control quotes by Farrah Fawcett
Don't let your age control your life. Let your life control your age. ~ Anthony Douglas Williams
Life Control quotes by Anthony Douglas Williams
It's possible for people to gain control of every facet of your life. ~ Randy Quaid
Life Control quotes by Randy Quaid
The more control you have, the more income you have. ~ Meir Ezra
Life Control quotes by Meir Ezra
I've had injuries in my life from things beyond my control: runaway horses, helicopters that decide to crash on mountaintops, boating accidents - things that were out of my hands. ~ Christie Brinkley
Life Control quotes by Christie Brinkley
I'm not the only person who has something in their life they can't control. ~ TobyMac
Life Control quotes by TobyMac
What do I lose when I have a praying life? Control. Independence. What do I gain? Friendship with God. A quiet heart. The living work of God in the hearts of those I love. The ability to roll back the tide of evil. Essentially, I lose my kingdom and get his. I move from being an independent player to a dependent lover. I move from being an orphan to a child of God. ~ Paul E. Miller
Life Control quotes by Paul E. Miller
Life is a lot easier when you realize that you're not in control of it all. ~ Karrine Steffans
Life Control quotes by Karrine Steffans
You must strive to multiply bread so that it suffices for the tables of mankind, and not rather favor an artificial control of birth, which would be irrational, in order to diminish the number of guests at the banquet of life. ~ Pope Paul VI
Life Control quotes by Pope Paul VI
Control your life through insanity. ~ Cliff Burton
Life Control quotes by Cliff Burton
I would like to suggest to you that you 'grab life by the horns' and do not let life grab you by the horns. You take control of your lives. ... Do not let life control you. ... Take charge. Rise to the divinity that is within you. ~ Gordon B. Hinckley
Life Control quotes by Gordon B. Hinckley
It's a lot like life. I think 99 percent of what goes on in life, we have very little control over. ~ Andy Van Slyke
Life Control quotes by Andy Van Slyke
Things will happen in your life that you have no control over but that doesn't mean you are at the complete mercy of the unknown. You will always have power over your reaction to the outside world. That is your power. It is the power that can change your life if you choose to use it. Never believe that you have no control over your life, you have so much more control over your life than you can even imagine. So be active in changing your life. ~ Avina Celeste
Life Control quotes by Avina Celeste
The fact that you can act with love even when you don't 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. ~ Russ Harris
Life Control quotes by Russ Harris
I want to control the company, but I don't know how life goes. We are already a big company, and the larger our capitalization is, the lower goes the threshold for control. ~ Sergey Galitsky
Life Control quotes by Sergey Galitsky
You're choosing to let life control you, instead of the other way around. That's the big secret. You choose the kind of life you want to live. ~ Nicholas Sparks
Life Control quotes by Nicholas Sparks
When I was still drinking, I thought I was kind of in control of everything in my life and other people's lives and realized at some point that that just wasn't the case at all. ~ Jason Isbell
Life Control quotes by Jason Isbell
I no longer own or control the businesses which I have spent my life building up. ~ Sean Quinn
Life Control quotes by Sean Quinn
I didn't want to get back into the whole industry. I left overworked, overwhelmed, and not having any control over my life. I was bulimic and needed to heal. ~ Cheryl James
Life Control quotes by Cheryl James
Be yourself, take control of your life. ~ Emma Bunton
Life Control quotes by Emma Bunton
Getting your house in order and reducing the confusion gives you more control over your life. Personal organization some how releases or frees you to operate more effectively. ~ Larry King
Life Control quotes by Larry King
Life in New York is one of succumbing to a tidal wave of control and direction, of numbing oneself to emotion. ~ Chris Benz
Life Control quotes by Chris Benz
Indie publishing lets me feed my inner control freak. ~ Michelle M. Pillow
Life Control quotes by Michelle M. Pillow
And I told him, I said: One day you're going to miss the subway because it's not going to come. One of these days, it's going to break down and it's not going to come around and everyone else will just wait for the next one or will take the bus, or walk, or run to the next station: they will go on with their lives. And you're not going to be able to go on with your life! You'll be standing there, in the subway station, staring at the tube. Why? Because you think that everything has to happen perfectly and on time and when you think it's going to happen! Well guess what! That's not how things happen! And you'll be the only one who's not going to be able to go on with life, just because your subway broke down. So you know what, you've got to let go, you've got to know that things don't happen the way you think they're going to happen, but that's okay, because there's always the bus, there's always the next station ... you can always take a cab. ~ C. JoyBell C.
Life Control quotes by C. JoyBell C.
Sometimes the transition from being in control of your life to having absolutely no control is swift, but other times it is so gradual that you wonder exactly when it truly began. ~ Mickey Rooney
Life Control quotes by Mickey Rooney
I think control is a two-way street; sometimes people want to control things to keep them safe if they are afraid of life. ~ Paul Dano
Life Control quotes by Paul Dano
I like to control my own personal life. ~ Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Life Control quotes by Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Words that you use determine and control what happens in life. ~ Steven Redhead
Life Control quotes by Steven Redhead
I was never able to analyze my own performance that way I can now. I've realized why certain actors work. I think I'm very in control of what I do in there now. I know how to listen, how to make it real and how not to go to jokes, but to go for a sense of reality. ~ Steve Dildarian
Life Control quotes by Steve Dildarian
But you'll never get a new ending if you keep starting with the same tired beginning. ~ Lisa Daily
Life Control quotes by Lisa Daily
Creativity is dynamic, it asserts life, frees the human spirit, conquers mental lassitude and illness, and makes real the outrageous potential of the universal imagination. ~ Robert Genn
Life Control quotes by Robert Genn
Gradually, I realized that the ideas I had embraced and defended blindly all my life represented a singular, and highly radical, point of view. I began to question everything. ~ Manal Al-Sharif
Life Control quotes by Manal Al-Sharif
No man who has managed to keep out of an office can be called a failure in life. ~ Richard Aldington
Life Control quotes by Richard Aldington
This is a war," Lemas replied. "It's graphic and unpleasant because it's fought on a tiny scale, at close range; fought with a wastage of innocent life sometimes, I admit. But it's nothing, nothing at all besides other wars - the last or the next. ~ John Le Carre
Life Control quotes by John Le Carre
Over all, I think the main thing a musician would like to do is give a picture to the listener of the many wonderful things that he knows of and senses in the universe ... Thats what I would like to do. I think thats one of the greatest things you can do in life and we all try to do it in some way. The musicians is through his music. ~ John Coltrane
Life Control quotes by John Coltrane
The whole point of life is to learn love. Life is the school, love is the lesson and we are all here to teach each other. ~ Kate McGahan
Life Control quotes by Kate McGahan
The Democratic policy is any abortion, any time, for any reason at any point in a woman's pregnancy, right up until the last minute, to be paid by taxpayers. Barbara Boxer described this policy as, 'It's not a life until it leaves the hospital.' ~ Carly Fiorina
Life Control quotes by Carly Fiorina
Any smidgen of emotion revealed would crack the careful mask of control and leave the person in pieces. ~ Jodi Picoult
Life Control quotes by Jodi Picoult
I'm interested in trying to explore what I think is the truth at a given time in my life, and part of the process of being honest is - in my mind - talking about the idea that you're watching a movie. You're sitting here watching a movie. And I like that. It appeals to me intellectually, and also in a way I can't even explain. ~ Charlie Kaufman
Life Control quotes by Charlie Kaufman
Love and Friendship, when you have them or lose them they are much like the Greek story of Icarus...
You can make you feel like you're soaring above the clouds with happiness when you have them or feel like you are plummeting to the depths of hell with despair when you lose them. ~ Anonymous
Life Control quotes by Anonymous
What a privilege it is to be able to go to the temple, where we may experience the sanctifying influence of the Spirit of the Lord. Great service is given when we perform vicarious ordinances for those who have gone beyond the veil… and in that process we attain that which comes of no other effort: we literally become saviors on Mount Zion. As our Savior gave His life as a vicarious sacrifice for us, so we, in some small measure, do the same when we perform proxy work in the temple for those who have no means of moving forward unless something is done for them by those of us here on the earth. ~ Thomas S. Monson
Life Control quotes by Thomas S. Monson
Does a man work harder for being unhappy, unfulfilled? Is he less dedicated to his job, if he is allowed to commit himself for a life to another man instead of a woman? ~ Aleksandr Voinov
Life Control quotes by Aleksandr Voinov
No amount of regretting can change the past, and no amount of worrying can change the future. ~ Roy T. Bennett
Life Control quotes by Roy T. Bennett
Into each life, a little rain will fall. But everyone must suffer the sun burning down too. ~ Farahad Zama
Life Control quotes by Farahad Zama
They say the music you listen to in your formative years stays with you and leaves an impression for the rest of your life. For me, the things that I fell in love with happened in the '70s, when artists were nurtured by record companies and it wasn't about singles. ~ Nikki Sixx
Life Control quotes by Nikki Sixx
Managers assert drive and control to get things done; leaders pause to discover new ways of being and achieving . ~ Kevin Cashman
Life Control quotes by Kevin Cashman
The relation of landlord and tenant is not an ideal one, but any relations in a social order will endure if there is infused into them some of that spirit of human sympathy which qualifies life for immortality. ~ George William Russell
Life Control quotes by George William Russell
We're born to die, but don't know why or what it's all about
And, the more we try to learn, the less we know.
Life's a very funny proposition, you can bet,
And no one's ever solved the problem properly, as yet;
Young for a day, then old and gray,
Like the rose that buds and blooms, and fades and falls away.
Losing health, to gain our wealth, as through this dream we tour;
Ev'rything's a guess and nothing's absolutely sure.
Battles exciting, and fates we're fighting, until the curtain fall;
Life's a very funny proposition, after all. ~ George M. Cohan
Life Control quotes by George M. Cohan
Make a better life for yourself and decide today that you will only accept perceptions that are authentic to you and which support your positive growth. ~ Donnalynn Civello
Life Control quotes by Donnalynn Civello
The male frog in mating season," said Crake, "makes as much noise as it can. The females are attracted to the male frog with the biggest, deepest voice because it suggests a more powerful frog, one with superior genes. Small male frogs - it's been documented - discover if they position themselves in empty drainpipes, the pipe acts as a voice amplifier and the small frog appears much larger than it really is."
So?"
So that's what art is for the artist, an empty drainpipe. An amplifier. A stab at getting laid. ~ Margaret Atwood
Life Control quotes by Margaret Atwood
Do not believe anything on the mere authority of teachers or priests. Accept as true and as the guide to your life only that which accords with your own reason and experience, after thorough investigation. Accept only that which contributes to the well-being of yourself and others. ~ Gautama Buddha
Life Control quotes by Gautama Buddha
European civilisation finds it easier to tolerate differ-
ent ways of life precisely on account of what its critics
usually denounce as its weakness and failure, namely
the alienation of social life. One of the things alienation
means is that distance is woven into the very social texture of everyday life. Even if I live side by side with others, in my normal state I ignore them. I am allowed not to get too close to others. I move in a social space where I interact with others obeying certain external "mechanical" rules, without sharing their inner world. Perhaps the lesson to be learned is that sometimes a dose of alienation is indispensable for peaceful coexistence. Sometimes alienation is not a problem but a solution. ~ Slavoj Zizek
Life Control quotes by Slavoj Zizek
Another danger is that - as is already happening to some extent - authors and editors run scared and go to absurd lengths to avoid giving offence. (An American editor rejected Polar, a picture book about a toy polar bear which is published in England by Andre Deutsch, on the ground that the text, written by Elaine Moss, states explicitly that the bear is white). A demand to avoid stereotypes can easily become in effect a demand for a different stereotype: for instance that girls should always be shown as strong, brave and resourceful, and that mothers should always have jobs and never, never wear an apron. And books written to an approved formula, or with deliberate didactic aim, do not often have the breath of life. Some members of women's groups in North America have published their own anti-sexist books, featuring such characters as fire-fighting girls or boys who learn to crochet. Good luck to them; but those I have seen are far below professional standard.

("Are Children's Books Racist and Sexist?" from Only Connect, 2nd ed., 1980) ~ John Rowe Townsend
Life Control quotes by John Rowe Townsend
The light that illumines it, and reveals to a man the cathedral of his soul, can be of many strengths – from a candle to a sun – but it burns on one fuel only: his integrity. The vision contains an element of eternity that has nothing to do with time, but everything to do with the width and breadth of his life. It is measurable, but indivisible. Betrayed, it will avenge itself. The action would contradict both it and a man's ineradicable knowledge of it, leaving him, should he survive the cataclysm, a mechanical, insensate manqué, drained of all future capacity for the sublime and earthly joy. Betrayed, it will become his worst nemesis, and he the impotent enemy of the implacable justice of its memory. Animate, it can make him maddeningly intolerant and insufferably imperial, together contemptuous of lesser souls and indifferent to them. It could cause him to say to others, should he be provoked to speak to them in his thoughts: You think in terms of nooks and crannies, of niches and pigeonholes, of ruffles and fringes; I think in terms of vistas and frescoes, of oceans and continents, peopled by gods, heroes, and myself. ~ Edward Cline
Life Control quotes by Edward Cline
Every service is a product of double honor ~ Sunday Adelaja
Life Control quotes by Sunday Adelaja
Certain vocations, e.g., raising children, offer a perfect setting for living a contemplative life. They provide a desert for reflection, a real monastery. The mother who stays home with small children experiences a very real withdrawal from the world. Her existence is certainly monastic. Her tasks and preoccupations remove her from the centres of social life and from the centres of important power. She feels removed. Moreover, her constant contact with young children, the mildest of the mild, gives her a privileged opportunity to be in harmony with the mild and learn empathy and unselfishness. Perhaps more so even than the monk or the minister of the Gospel, she is forced, almost against her will, to mature. For years, while she is raising small children, her time is not her own, her own needs have to be put into second place, and every time she turns around some hand is reaching out demanding something. ~ Ronald Rolheiser
Life Control quotes by Ronald Rolheiser
I need to use my mind in a way that slows the out-of-control beating in my chest. The darkness around us could be anywhere, anytime. I could be alive or dead. Okay, I choose alive. While I'm at it, I choose the darkness to be a gentle blanket on a moonless night, where I rest a few feet from a boy who's warm and sweet. When he holds me, his heart beats strong with what I tell myself is passion, not fear. ~ Jeanne Ryan
Life Control quotes by Jeanne Ryan
I must cease living the false life of an imposter, and stop worrying about the future or risk sacrificing the joy of living in the moment. I am a seeker. I shall listen to the teaching my blood whispers and ecstatically accept life unfolding in whatever manner my innate material demands. ~ Kilroy J. Oldster
Life Control quotes by Kilroy J. Oldster
Fellow-feeling ... is the most important factor in producing a healthy political and social life. Neither our national nor our local civic life can be what it should be unless it is marked by the fellow-feeling, the mutual kindness, the mutual respect, the sense of common duties and common interests, which arise when men take the trouble to understand one another, and to associate together for a common object. A very large share of the rancor of political and social strife arises either from sheer misunderstanding by one section, or by one class, of another, or else from the fact that the two sections, or two classes, are so cut off from each other that neither appreciates the other's passions, prejudices, and, indeed, point of view, while they are both entirely ignorant of their community of feeling as regards the essentials of manhood and humanity. ~ Theodore Roosevelt
Life Control quotes by Theodore Roosevelt
A prayer, it seems to me, implies a promise as well as a request; at the highest level, prayer not only is a supplication for strength and guidance, but also becomes an affirmation of life and thus a reverent praise of God. ~ Walt Disney
Life Control quotes by Walt Disney
Do not leave your life to chance.
Live your life on purpose. ~ Ezinne Orjiako, Nkem.
Life Control quotes by Ezinne Orjiako, Nkem.
[H]is first purpose was to explain himself, and before they reached Mr. Allen's grounds he had done it so well that Catherine did not think it could ever be repeated too often. She was assured of his affection; and that heart in return was solicited, which, perhaps, they pretty equally knew was already entirely his own; for, though Henry was now sincerely attached to her, though he felt and delighted in all the excellencies of her character and truly loved her society, I must confess that his affection originated in nothing better than gratitude, or, in other words, that a persuasion of her partiality for him had been the only cause of giving her a serious thought. It is a new circumstance in romance, I acknowledge, and dreadfully derogatory of an heroine's dignity; but if it be as new in common life, the credit of a wild imagination will at least be all my own. ~ Jane Austen
Life Control quotes by Jane Austen
I think I earned the players' respect, and that's the ultimate in life, isn't it? I didn't care if they liked me or disliked me, as long as I had their respect. ~ Al Barlick
Life Control quotes by Al Barlick
When you first looked at me
I forgot to breathe
that moment marked my hardened heart
I vowed to never leave

And the touch of your skin
healed something deep within
that left me wanting more of you
the less I got the more it grew

Oh I couldn't help from falling, falling for you

So I'm standing here, oh girl you know
After all that we've been through we couldn't let it go
and as long as I'm alive, in your eyes I'll stare
holding you so close I'll solemnly swear
that I have fallen too far
that I have fallen too far, too far for you.
For you

When I finally found you
I finally found me
that day I won't soon forget
the reason for it all

I'll give you a new name
nothing in life will be the same
the story is now complete
our life and love is all we need

'Cause I couldn't help from falling
falling for you

So I'm standing here oh girl you know
After all we've been through we couldn't let it go
and as long as I'm alive, in your eyes I'll stare
holding you so close I'll solemnly swear
that I have fallen too far, that I have fallen too far
too far for you

My heart is beating
begging for you
this night will be
a dream come true
so fall, fall, fall into my arms

So I'm standing here oh girl you know
After all that we've been through we couldn't let it ~ Abbi Glines
Life Control quotes by Abbi Glines
The most powerful life is the most simple life. The most powerful life is the life that knows where it's going, that knows where the source of strength is; it is the life that stays free of clutter and happenstance and hurriedness. ~ Max Lucado
Life Control quotes by Max Lucado
It is written in my life-blood, such that it is, thick or thin; and I can no other. ~ J.R.R. Tolkien
Life Control quotes by J.R.R. Tolkien
Do you know, I spent the first half of my life avoiding motherhood and tires, and now I'm counting them as blessings? ~ Barbara Kingsolver
Life Control quotes by Barbara Kingsolver
