Control Yoke

Famous quotes containing the words control and/or yoke:

    When a book, any sort of book, reaches a certain intensity of artistic performance it becomes literature. That intensity may be a matter of style, situation, character, emotional tone, or idea, or half a dozen other things. It may also be a perfection of control over the movement of a story similar to the control a great pitcher has over the ball.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.
    —Bible: Hebrew Lamentations of Jeremiah, 3:27.
