Control Bits

Famous quotes containing the words control and/or bits:

“The three-year-old who lies about taking a cookie isn’t really a “liar” after all. He simply can’t control his impulses. He then convinces himself of a new truth and, eager for your approval, reports the version that he knows will make you happy.”

“At death, you break up: the bits that were you
Start speeding away from each other for ever
With no one to see.”
