Famous quotes containing the word issue:
“I dont have any problem with a reporter or a news person who says the President is uninformed on this issue or that issue. I dont think any of us would challenge that. I do have a problem with the singular focus on this, as if thats the only standard by which we ought to judge a president. What we learned in the last administration was how little having an encyclopedic grasp of all the facts has to do with governing.”
—David R. Gergen (b. 1942)
“Take away from the courts, if it could be taken away, the power to issue injunctions in labor disputes, and it would create a privileged class among the laborers and save the lawless among their number from a most needful remedy available to all men for the protection of their business interests against unlawful invasion.... The secondary boycott is an instrument of tyranny, and ought not to be made legitimate.”
—William Howard Taft (18571930)
“Lifes so short, Katie. You have to make every moment count. Its not easy to do, you know. I dont think that a day goes by when I dont turn my back on some small thing or some issue somewhere. But its so short, Katie. If youre not careful, the days go by and all you have time for is regret.”
—Blake Edwards (b. 1922)
