Command Control

Famous quotes containing the words command and/or control:

“It is manifest therefore that they who have sovereign power, are immediate rulers of the church under Christ, and all others but subordinate to them.

—Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)

“In Vietnam, some of us lost control of our lives. I want my life back. I almost feel like I’ve been missing in action for twenty-two years.”
