Famous quotes containing the word issue:

    The area [of toilet training] is one where a child really does possess the power to defy. Strong pressure leads to a powerful struggle. The issue then is not toilet training but who holds the reins—mother or child? And the child has most of the ammunition!
    Dorothy Corkville Briggs (20th century)

    Public administrators would get along better if they would restrain the impulse to butt in or be dragged into trouble. They should remain silent until an issue is reduced to its lowest terms, until it boils down into something like a moral issue.
    Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)

    We have nothing to do, but to choose what is right, to be steady in the pursuit of it, and leave the issue to Providence.
    Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
