A Quote by Harlan Coben

I'm a little bit of a control freak. — © Harlan Coben
I'm a little bit of a control freak.
I can be a little bit of a control freak.
I'm a little bit of a control freak when it comes to my music, unfortunately.
I'm a little bit of a control freak, so it's been nice to learn to let go and just trust others.
I don't like anything that's too confining. I'm sort of a control freak, so anything that makes me feel like I'm out of control is a bit uncomfortable. But you know how it is, sometimes it's good to live a little!
I'm a bit of a control freak, and I had to realize you can't control everything in your life.
I am definitely a perfectionist, and I do like things a certain way. But as I have got older, I would say that I am a little bit less of a control freak.
I'm a bit of a control freak.
For me, I'm a bit of a control freak.
I love film and I love the film business. And I don't think there's any better way, with my personality, than being a producer which is a little bit of a control freak.
I think it happens with every career when you've been around 10 or 12 years. You start to get on cruise control a little bit, then you freak out and go, 'Oh my gosh, we've got to change some things up.'
When it's time to make music, that's about getting lost for me. To be a control freak is not half as good as being a freak who's casually in control. You're feeling around in the dark for something that feels good.
[hitrecord.org is my] alternative outlet of where I get to be a little less professional and just freak out a little bit.
I'm not a control freak in that like I boss everybody around, but like a control freak and like, I like knowing exactly what I get to do that day and having a say.
Being producer you're still going to have to sell somebody who's going to give you the money on the idea and everything like that. But it does give you a little bit more control if you're thinking in that creative process; it gives you more control to tell the story you want to tell rather than sort of just reading a script that somebody else wrote and says, "Yes, please, you can hire me for this job." So it's a little bit more hands-on, a little bit more closer to the heart.
I never doubted that if I applied myself and tried to learn that I would good at it. I've had a lot of lucky turns, no doubt. But it's actually been a fairly direct line from control-freak, cartoon-obsessed kindergartner to control-freak, cartoon-obsessed executive producer.
To my credit, I think I'm a gentle control freak. Maybe even a little manipulative.
