It’s hard to feel attracted to someone who has abandoned her sense of autonomy.
Control leads to compliance; autonomy leads to engagement.
A person is not merely a single subject distinguished from all the others. It is especially a being to which is attributed a relative autonomy in relation to the environment with which it is most immediately in contact.
Punishment renders autonomy of conscience impossible.
I have to remember that I didn't have to become an actor. I didn't have to put myself in this position. If I'd wanted to have autonomy - if that was what I was after - then I could have chosen another profession.
But I'm more scared of not writing.
I recently assured Public Sector Banks they will have total autonomy in taking business decisions.
