Issue Quotes

Of course it is a very simple matter to identify genes which might modify intelligence or memory and start thinking about whether you want to enhance a human, and the next generation is going to have to deal with that issue. Should we be trying to enhance humans rather than trying to educate them and so on? Picture Quote #1

I think the most important issue we have as a people is what we started, and that is to begin to trust our own thinking again and belive in ourselves enough to think that we can articulate our own vision of the future and then work to make sure that that vision becomes a reality Picture Quote #1

It’s two people that are in love with one another. What’s the issue? Picture Quote #1

If I want my daughter to try something, I eat it in front of her repeatedly without forcing the issue and, with some trial and error, the world is our oyster! Picture Quote #1

The first thing that you need to deal with is the issue of equity and poverty Picture Quote #1

For the record, I love my sister. But she is dead wrong on the marriage issue Picture Quote #1

We have embarked upon the world’s largest and longest cocktail party, and every issue imaginable is up for grabs Picture Quote #1

The investigation of causal relations between economic phenomena presents many problems of peculiar difficulty, and offers many opportunities for fallacious conclusions. Since the statistician can seldom or never make experiments for himself, he has to accept the data of daily experience, and discuss as best he can the relations of a whole group of changes; he cannot, like the physicist, narrow down the issue to the effect of one variation at a time. The problems of statistics are in this sense far more complex than the problems of physics Picture Quote #1

I see myself as a climate change skeptic and a skeptic looks at the evidence and bases conclusions on the evidence rather than on belief. To hold the view that this is not an issue that you need to do something about, to hold the view that it’s all a furphy takes belief Picture Quote #1

A cap and trade bill will likely increase the costs of electricity... These costs will be passed on to the consumers. But the issue is, how does it actually... how do we interact in terms with the rest of the world? If other countries don’t impose a cost on carbon, then we would be at a disadvantage... We should look at considering duties that would offset that cost Picture Quote #1

The crux of the sea level issue is that it starts very slowly but once it gets going it is practically unstoppable... There is no way I can see to stop this rise, even if we have gone to zero emissions Picture Quote #1

We need a more authoritative world... What’s the alternative to democracy? There isn’t one. But even the best democracies agree that when a major war approaches, democracy must be put on hold for the time being. I have a feeling that climate change may be an issue as severe as war. It may be necessary to put democracy on hold for a while Picture Quote #1

So often when you start talking about kindness to animals someone comments that starving and mistreated children should come first. The issue can’t be divided like that. It isn’t a choice between children and animals. It’s our duty to care for both. Kindness is the important thing. Kids and animals are our responsibility Picture Quote #1

The protestant martyrs and their monuments testify to the fact that they died, not on account of ecclesial differences, but because the issue was the way of salvation Picture Quote #1

The death penalty is a poor person’s issue. Always remember that: after all the rhetoric that goes on in the legislative assemblies, in the end, when the deck is cast out, it is the poor who are selected to die in this country Picture Quote #1

There have been people.. ever since I’ve had any kind of position in the world.. who have accused me of being ruler of the world. I have to say that I think for the large part, I would have to decide to describe them as crack pots. It makes no sense whatsoever, and isn’t true, and won’t be true, and to raise it as a serious issue seems to me to be irresponsible Picture Quote #1

It should be possible to emphasize to students that the level of employment is a macroeconomic issue, depending in the short run on aggregate demand and depending in the long run on the natural rate of unemployment, with microeconomic policies like tariffs having little net effect. Trade policy should be debated in terms of its impact on efficiency, not in terms of phoney numbers about jobs created or lost Picture Quote #1

The single biggest issue that I’m very sensitive to is inflation. I’m very concerned that this extended period where the interest rates were quite low and stimulated a lot of activity could breed inflation and create a problem for us Picture Quote #1

Kyoto protocol is not a simple environmental issue, where you can say scientists are not unanimous. This is about international relations, this is about the economy, about trying to create a level playing field for big businesses throughout the world. You have to understand what is at stake, and that is why it is serious, Picture Quote #1

I have a feeling that climate change may be an issue as severe as a war. It may be necessary to put democracy on hold for a while Picture Quote #1

We should be treating, I think, the whole issue of climate change and global warming with a far greater degree of priority than I think is happening now Picture Quote #1

Climate change is not an environmental issue, but much more to do with security and economics Picture Quote #1

There are tiny choices that everyone can make that profoundly affect our collective water use. Like not having the tap on while brushing your teeth, not starting your shower ten minutes in advance, not doing laundry until you have a full load. In this particular issue, education really is power Picture Quote #1

Money is the great power today. Men sell their souls for it. Women sell their bodies for it. Others worship it. The money power has grown so great that the issue of all issues is whether the corporation shall rule this country or the country shall again rule the corporations Picture Quote #1

Avoid secret’s! Be open about which you are. It takes too much energy to hide in the closet about any issue Picture Quote #1

Foreign aid must be viewed as an investment, not an expense... but when foreign aid is carefully guided and targeted at a specific issue, it can and must be effective Picture Quote #1

Every issue of life is determined not by external conditions and things, but by one’s consciousness Picture Quote #1

Architecture and architectural freedom are above all a social issue that must be seen from inside a political structure, not from outside it Picture Quote #1

I feel that what mathematics needs least are pundits who issue prescriptions or guidelines for presumably less enlightened mortals Picture Quote #1

$I have come to believe that extracting natural gas from shale using the newish technique called hydrofracking is the environmental issue of our time. And I think you should, too Picture Quote #1$
