Famous quotes containing the word issue:

    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)

    Cathy Rindner Tempelsman (20th century)

    An artist is a man of action, whether he creates a personality, invents an expedient, or finds the issue of a complicated situation.
