Even though you try to put people under control, it is impossible. You cannot do it. The best way to control people is to encourage them to be mischievous.

This is the best policy. 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.
