human mind is influencing constantly.man can not fully control it.as he think he did,second after he will be under it's control.that's all being human.

I'm fairly convinced that the Kingdom of God is for the broken-hearted. You write of 'powerlessness.' Join the club, we are not in control. God is.

The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum....

As I like to put it, we have hit pay dirt. The effort to cure the resource curse is a good example of what private foundations working with NGOs can accomplish.

Has he written to you?''He writes frequently.''Shew me his letters this instant, I order you'; and M. de Renal added six feet to his stature.

Control.... is not what we need.What we need is to bend to the tempest like pine and palm trees - flexible, adaptive, attuned, yet fully rooted in our principles.

When things run out of control it is because we failed to control how reality plays out. How you manage and control your reality will come to determine your life.

You know something is wrong when the government declares opening someone else’s mail is a felony but your internet activity is fair game for data collecting.

It is our attitude toward events, not events themselves, which we can control. Nothing is by its own nature calamitous -- even death is terrible only if we fear it.

Become aware of your feelings. Observe them. Get to know why you feel the way you do. The more you understand your feelings, the lesser you remain in their control.

You have 100% control over yourself, and your life. It is up to you to stop giving your power away, and to decide what you want to be, do, or have...and go after it.

The truth is that this was something over which I had no control and the question is not why but what. What am I going to do with this? What am I going to make of it?

The Gelaming regarded themselves as a force for good, and in many ways they were, but they were also inexorable and their compassion could often feel like oppression.
