Central Control

Famous quotes containing the words central and/or control:

“But when the self speaks to the self, who is speaking?—the entombed soul, the spirit driven in, in, in to the central catacomb; the self that took the veil and left the world—a coward perhaps, yet somehow beautiful, as it flits with its lantern restlessly up and down the dark corridors.”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

“Not being able to control events, I control myself; and I adapt myself to them, if they do not adapt themselves to me.”
