Famous quotes containing the word issue:

    “The sun of her [Great Britain] glory is fast descending to the horizon. Her philosophy has crossed the Channel, her freedom the Atlantic, and herself seems passing to that awful dissolution, whose issue is not given human foresight to scan.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    “Most people see no reason to stop arguing just because an issue has been decided.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “We find it easy to set limits when the issue is safety.... But 99 percent of the time there isn’t imminent danger; most of life takes place on more ambiguous ground, and children are experts at detecting ambivalence.”
    —Cathy Rindner Tempelsman (20th century)
