Issue

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)

    Parents are led to believe that they must be consistent, that is, always respond to the same issue the same way. Consistency is good up to a point but your child also needs to understand context and subtlety . . . much of adult life is governed by context: what is appropriate in one setting is not appropriate in another; the way something is said may be more important than what is said. . . .
    Stanley I. Greenspan (20th century)

    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)
