Choose a letter: 
Take control of your consistent emotions and begin to consciously and deliberately reshape your daily experience of life.
Tony Robbins, American Author (1960-  )
In essence, if we want to direct our lives, we must take control of our consistent actions. It's not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives, but what we do consistently.
Tony Robbins, American Author (1960-  )
George Pal had total control, and he was there on the set every day. You never met a more charming man in your entire lifetime - what a lovely gentleman.

The secret to success is to own nothing, but control everything.
Nelson Rockefeller, American Vice President (1908-1979)

Anita Roddick, English Businessman (1942-  )
Marketing is a very good thing, but it shouldn't control everything. It should be the tool, not that which dictates.

Dana Rohrabacher, American Politician (1947-  )
If we want more trade in the world, we should establish bilateral trade agreements with other democratic countries. That way we can control the decision-making process. The major economic countries of the world will enter into those agreements.
Dana Rohrabacher, American Politician (1947-  )
The only sure bulwark of continuing liberty is a government strong enough to protect the interests of the people, and a people strong enough and well enough informed to maintain its sovereign control over the goverment.
Franklin D. Roosevelt, American President (1882-1945)
The attractive idea that we can now have a parliament of man with authority to control the conduct of nations by legislation or an international police force with power to enforce national conformity to rules of right conduct is a counsel of perfection.
Elihu Root, American Lawyer (1845-1937)
Human nature must have come much nearer perfection than it is now, or will be in many generations, to exclude from such a control prejudice, selfishness, ambition, and injustice.
Elihu Root, American Lawyer (1845-1937)
The Industry's at war. I think it's about control. You can make all of the financial arguments that the industry has been shooting itself in the foot, but it is an industry built on a foundation of ownership and exploitation of intellectual property rights.
Don Rose, American Entertainer (1934-2005)
From the cradle to the grave she is subject to the power and control of man. Father, guardian, or husband, one conveys her like some piece of merchandise over to the other.
Ernestine Rose, Activist (1810-1892)
The Constitution wanted artists to have control over their works because they knew it would create incentive to create more works. That is clearly still the goal.
Hilary Rosen, American Businessman (1958-  )
When you have the paparazzi hiding in the bushes outside your home, the only thing you can control is how you respond publicly.
Portia de Rossi, Australian Actress (1973-  )

Permit me to issue and control the money of a nation, and I care not who makes its laws.
Mayer Amschel Rothschild, German Businessman (1744-1812)
I'm very excited to see where the characters and their relationships go. But in the end, it really boils down to the people who have more power than me, who control the money.
Brandon Routh, American Actor (1979-  )
I think the big thing I've had going for me in that regard has been the success of the league. I don't have quite as much control over things as people believe, so I frequently receive more credit than I deserve, and occasionally more criticism as well.
Pete Rozelle, American Celebrity (1926-1996)
