“History was like some vast thing that was always over the tight horizon, invisible except in its effects. It was what happened when you weren't looking -- an unknowable infinity of events, which although out of control, controlled everything.”
“We can’t always control what happens in our lives- things will go well, things will go poorly-but what we can control is our response to those events.”
“Great change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over & release control over what you don't.”
“Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over instead of craving control over what you don't.”
“That is very good. People always want to be in a hurry. They want to control everything around them. Even the weather. They say, "What is the weather today?" The only thing they don't control is themselves, when that is the one thing they can control.”
“Every once in a while I don't think it's a bad idea for lawyers to remember that what goes on, at least on some level of our brains, is that we have to imagine everything coming apart. ... It's what we are. Out of control, always prepared, Boy Scout control freaks.”
