Master Volume Control

Famous quotes containing the words master, volume and/or control:

    I cringe when critics say I’m a master of the popular novel. What’s an unpopular novel?
    Irwin Shaw (b. 1913)

    Thy commandment all alone shall live
    Within the book and volume of my brain
    Unmixed with baser matter.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Above and beyond paying attention to feelings before and after a separation, never threaten your child with leaving or loss of love in an effort to control her behavior. Children believe their parents’ assertions that “I will send you away,” “I won’t love you any more,” “I’ll go away,” and are terrified with good reason. Fear is a very poor way of disciplining a child, and it can cause severe lifelong anxiety.
    Alicia F. Lieberman (20th century)
