Famous quotes containing the word issue:

    “Your child...may not call you or other people names.... Don’t be tempted to gloss over this issue. You may be able to talk to yourself into not minding being called names, but this decision may come back to haunt you in later years. If you let a preschooler speak disrespectfully to you now, you’ll have a much harder time of it when your child is a preteen and the issue resurfaces, which it is likely to do then.”
    —Lawrence Balter (20th century)

    “Life’s so short, Katie. You have to make every moment count. It’s not easy to do, you know. I don’t think that a day goes by when I don’t turn my back on some small thing or some issue somewhere. But it’s so short, Katie. If you’re not careful, the days go by and all you have time for is regret.”
    —Blake Edwards (b. 1922)

    “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)
