Control Command Set

Famous quotes containing the words control, command and/or set:

    Our culture still holds mothers almost exclusively responsible when things go wrong with the kids. Sensing this ultimate accountability, women are understandably reluctant to give up control or veto power. If the finger of blame was eventually going to point in your direction, wouldn’t you be?
    Ron Taffel (20th century)

    For experience showed her that she had not, by marrying a man of a large fortune, obtained any great proportion of property which she could call her own or command at her pleasure.
    Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)

    I grew wild
    Even accusing Heaven because
    It had set down among its laws:
    Nothing that we love over-much
    Is ponderable to our touch.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
