Quotes about Manipulation

No one can manipulate anyone else. In any relationship, both parties know what they're doing, even if one of them complains later on that they were used.

"Man has got to take charge of Man....

Then real education, including pre-natal education.  By real education I mean one that has no 'take-it-or-leave-it' nonsense.  A real education makes the patient what it wants infallibly:  whatever he or his parents try to do about it.  Of course, it'll have to be mainly psychological at first. But we'll get on to biochemical conditioning int he end and direct manipulation of the brain...." -Lord Feverstone

"Love comes when manipulation stops; when you think more about the other person than about his or her reactions to you. When you dare to reveal yourself fully. When you dare to be vulnerable." - Dr Joyce Brothers

Quote

When your at peace with yourself and you love your self, its virtually impossible for you to do things to yourself that are destructive.

When you get enough inner peace and feel really positive about yourself, its almost impossible for you to be controlled or manipulated by anyone else.

the more you extend kindness to yourself the more it will become your natural response to others

A secret of abundance is to stop focussing on what you do not have and shift your consciousness to an appreciation for all that you do have

No limit people are so in charge that theycan trust their instincts, be childlike, be creative and do anything that makes sense to them.

The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organised habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country.

Quote

Ever since I was young, I've been pushed up life's ladder, rung by rung by people with the power to plan my future for me. Shoved through school and into a job, manipulated where I work, play and shop by advertisers and bosses and politicians I've never seen.
