Common Controls

Famous quotes containing the words common and/or controls:

“A person of definite character and purpose who comprehends our way of thought is sure to exert power over us. He cannot altogether be resisted; because, if he understands us, he can make us understand him, through the word, the look, or other symbol, which both of us connect with the common sentiment or idea; and thus by communicating an impulse he can move the will.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)

“Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
