All I can do is concentrate on what I'm doing, playing as well as I can at Celtic. Whatever happens outside, happens. I just need to do everything in my control, playing well.

Scott Sinclair

What has been happening in Turkey. The country has been taken over by the present rulers and they have been very, very skillful and taking over everything and taking over control over everything and now taking control over the judiciary. They will be taking over the constitution. Unless there will be some radical change, which is unlikely, I will say the tradition of Kemalism will be dead in Turkey. And Turkey is becoming a more Islamic state, in the traditional sense.

Bernard Lewis

Well I think the problem is, is that...what people don't realize is they're gonna get away from the people that they're marketing with now. They're tryna change everything about the format of the NBA, the imaging and everything. This is more about control you know what I'm saying? This has nothing to do with clothing. This is a control issue.

Everything happens for a reason, everything is part of a puzzle that, even at the time, if we don't understand the bigger picture, everything has significant role in what's to come in the future.

Jon Connor

There's this progress, incredible progress of technology, everything is figured out, everything is known, everything is systematic and under control, communication is going on, but still there is such a great portion of life that we have utterly no control over. It's completely chaotic. Something could happen overnight.

Michal Rovner

There's not one moment from my journey that I'd want to change. Everything happens for a reason.

Bruce Arians

If it happens, it happens, but because everything is going so well over here, we're not dying to break America.

Ant McPartlin

The comparison to Willie Beamen - that was pretty harsh, but everything happens for a reason and like I said, you can't control it.

Teddy Bridgewater

I think that everything happens for a reason, everything happens when it's going to happen.

Lou Reed

I don't have control over everything; God has control over everything and I trust him, so I don't worry.

Mariano Rivera

The most important thing for me is to have as much control over what's going on in front of me as I possibly can, so because of that, I don't play to a click track, and I don't have anything on the grid. Everything is triggered by me. Everything is played by me. Everything is within my control.

Jack Garratt

Everything happens through immutable laws, ...everything is necessary... There are, some persons say, some events which are necessary and others which are not. It would be very comic that one part of the world was arranged, and the other were not; that one part of what happens had to happen and that another part of what happens did not have to happen. If one looks closely at it, one sees that the doctrine contrary to that of destiny is absurd; but there are many people destined to reason badly; others not to reason at all others to persecute those who reason.

Voltaire

There are only two questions that human beings have ever fought over, all through history. 'How much do you love me?' And, 'Who's in charge?' Everything else is somehow manageable. But these two questions of love and control undo us all, trip us up and cause war, grief, and suffering.

Elizabeth Gilbert

It is often said that everything happens for a reason, but you must embrace the perspective that it's never a reason that is predetermined or out of your control. It is always your responsibility to choose the most empowering reasons for the occurrences of your life.

Hal Elrod

Nothing fortuitous happens in a child's world. There are no accidents. Everything is connected with everything else and everything can be explained by everything else. . . . For a young child everything that happens is a necessity.
