I can only control what I can control.

You can't control all the crazy stuff that happens to you. All you can control is the way you handle it.

You can only control what you can control.

You can never control other people. You can only control yourself. I have definitely learned that.

As much as you may want to, you can't control what other people say or do; you can only control yourself.

I only have control over what I do.

I like to control everything, and you cannot control everything. You have to at some point say, 'I let go and I'm going to let the cards fall where they fall... For a control freak, it's hard.

No matter what happens to you, you can maintain your own control about what you believe and who you are.

Science is not about control. It is about cultivating a perpetual condition of wonder in the face of something that forever grows one step richer and subtler than our latest theory about it. It is about reverence, not mastery.

You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.
