Reaction Control

Famous quotes containing the words reaction and/or control:

    The excessive increase of anything often causes a reaction in the opposite direction.
    Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)

    When a book, any sort of book, reaches a certain intensity of artistic performance it becomes literature. That intensity may be a matter of style, situation, character, emotional tone, or idea, or half a dozen other things. It may also be a perfection of control over the movement of a story similar to the control a great pitcher has over the ball.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
