If you want to manage somebody, manage yourself. Do that well and you'll be ready to stop managing. And start leading.

Mark Gonzales

If you wish to control others you must first control yourself

Miyamoto Musashi

Basically, managing is about influencing action. Managing is about helping organizations and units to get things done, which means action. Sometimes, managers manage actions directly. They fight fires. They manage projects. They negotiate contracts.

Henry Mintzberg

There are some who wish to learn for no other reason than that they may be looked upon as learned, which is ridiculous vanity ... Others desire to learn that they may morally instruct others, that is love. And, lastly, there are some who wish to learn that they may be themselves edified; and that is prudence.

Bernard of Clairvaux

It isn’t until you come to a spiritual understanding of who you are that you can begin to take control of yourself. As you learn to control yourself, you will get control of your life. If you want to move the world, you first have to move yourself.

Dieter F. Uchtdorf

How can you succeed by helping others succeed? We succeed at our very best only when we help others succeed.

James C. Collins

If you wish to live in peace and harmony with others, you must learn to discipline yourself in many ways.

Thomas a Kempis

Many people believe that decentralization means loss of control. That's simply not true. You can improve control if you look at control as the control of events and not people. Then, the more people you have controlling events - the more people you have that care about controlling the events, the more people you have proactively working to create favorable events - the more control you have within the organization, by definition.

Wilbur L. Creech

If you wish to know yourself observe how others act. If you wish to understand others look into your own heart.

Friedrich Schiller

Managing your time really means managing yourself. If your time is out of control, it means you are out of control.

Douglas Merrill

If you never allow your children to exceed what they can do, how are they ever going to manage adult life - where a lot of it is managing more than you thought you could manage?

Ellen Galinsky

The best people know that there are two phases in every crisis: the one where you manage it and the other where you learn from it. To succeed you have to do both

Mark McCormack

When you encounter some problems, if you point your finger at yourself and not at others, this gives you control over yourself and calmness in a situation, where otherwise self-control becomes problematic.

Dalai Lama

Anger is almost always an emotion for people who wish to control others while simultaneously failing to control themselves.

Daniel Pearce

The real truth that dare not speak itself, is that no one is in control, absolutely no one... Nobody is in control. This stuff is ruled by the equations of dynamics and chaos. Now, there may be entities seeking control - the World Bank, the Communist Party, the rich, the somebody-or-others - but to seek control is to take enormous aggravation upon yourself... It's like trying to control a dream.

Terence McKenna

Love others as you would love yourself, judge others as you would judge yourself, cherish others as you would cherish yourself. When you wish for others as you wish for yourself and when you protect others as you would protect yourself, that's when you can say it's true love.

Confucius
