Control Word

Famous quotes containing the words control and/or word:

    We long for our father. We wear his clothes, and actually try to fill his shoes. . . . We hang on to him, begging him to teach us how to do whatever is masculine, to throw balls or be in the woods or go see where he works. . . . We want our fathers to protect us from coming too completely under the control of our mothers. . . . We want to be seen with Dad, hanging out with men and doing men things.
    Frank Pittman (20th century)

    A word perhaps loud spoken you may get,
    Or hear our feet when heavily they tread;
    But he who speaks, or him who’s spoken to,
    Must both remain as strangers still to you.
    Jones Very (1831–1880)
