Famous quotes containing the word issue:

“For Banquo’s issue have I filed my mind;
For them the gracious Duncan have I murdered;
Put rancors in the vessel of my peace
Only for them; and mine eternal jewel
Given to the common enemy of man,
To make them kings, the seeds of Banquo kings!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“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)
