The best way to control people is to encourage them to be mischievous.. To give your sheep or cow a large, spacious meadow is the way to control him. So it is with people: first let them do what they want, and watch them.. To ignore them is not good; that is the worst policy. The second worst is trying to control them. The best one is to watch them, just to watch them, without trying to control them. Shunryu Suzuki
