Famous quotes containing the word issue:

    An artist is a man of action, whether he creates a personality, invents an expedient, or finds the issue of a complicated situation.
    Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)

    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)

    The issue is a mighty one for all people and all time; and whoever aids the right, will be appreciated and remembered.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
