Choose a letter: 
No matter what your choices are, you truly have no control about what people think of you.

Chris Cannon, American Politician (1950-  )
I grew up in a military family, and there's something about that military-style uniform, all cleaned up, a brutal control effort the military necessarily breeds.
Max Cannon, American Artist

It the British System is the most gigantic system of slavery the world has yet seen, and therefore it is that freedom gradually disappears from every country over which England is enabled to obtain control.

Leslie Caron, French Actress (1931-  )
I'm the first to admit this whole salary thing is getting out of control. In the final analysis, it's still about the work.
Jim Carrey, Canadian Comedian (1962-  )
We're more effective than birth control pills.
Johnny Carson, American Comedian (1925-2005)
The awareness that health is dependent upon habits that we control makes us the first generation in history that to a large extent determines its own destiny.
Jimmy Carter, American President (1924-  )
It was very much a cry for democratic control at that time. Above all, breaking the accomplished power of a few people to rule the lives of everybody else.

We will have more Internet, larger numbers of users, more mobile access, more speed, more things online and more appliances we can control over the Internet.
Vinton Cerf, American Inventor (1943-  )
It's more fun if you can control things like lighting and make special effects in the darkroom.
Lacey Chabert, American Actress (1982-  )
The Senate needs 60 votes to pass anything. They have to compromise with liberal Democrats to spend more money. Even though arguably we have control of the Senate, we really don't.
Steve Chabot, American Politician (1953-  )
I like making black and white films in natural surroundings, but I much prefer shooting a color film inside a studio where the colors are easier to control.
Claude Chabrol, French Director (1930-  )
Do not let circumstances control you. You change your circumstances.
Jackie Chan, Chinese Actor (1954-  )
As long as your body is healthy and under control and death is distant, try to save your soul; when death is immanent what can you do?
Chanakya, Indian Politician
There isn't much in the way of pure communist spirit, because the whole nation seems to be engaged in capitalistic enterprises. Much of the country still operates under government control.
Iris Chang, Chinese Historian (1968-2004)
Although my book is banned I am still allowed to go to China and travel. There is no longer the kind of control that Mao used to have-there have been deep fundamental changes in society.
Jung Chang, British Writer
