Culture is the name for what people are interested in, their thoughts, their models, the books they read and the speeches they hear, their table-talk, gossip, controversies, historical sense and scientific training, the values they appreciate, the quality of life they admire. All communities have a culture. It is the climate of their civilization. – Walter LippmannRate it:
Half the controversies in the world are verbal ones; and could they be brought to a plain issue they would be brought to a prompt termination. Parties engaged in them would then perceive either that in substance they agreed together, or that their difference was one of first principles. We need not dispute, we need not prove, we need but define. At all events, let us, if we can, do this first of all and then see who are left for us to dispute; what is left for us to prove. – Cardinal John NewmanRate it:
It is important, of course, that controversies be settled right, but there are many civil questions which arise between individuals in which it is not so important the controversy be settled one way or another as that it be settled. Of course a settlement of a controversy on a fundamentally wrong principle of law is greatly to be deplored, but there must of necessity be many rules governing the relations between members of the same society that are more important in that their establishment creates a known rule of action than that they proceed on one principle or another. Delay works always for the man with the longest purse. – William Howard TaftRate it:
Donald Trump has proved remarkably resilient, getting past controversies that might have sunk other candidates. – The Washington PostRate it:

I know there have been controversies this year and rifts and divides and those may or may not affect numbers on particular marches, but I haven't seen that have any effect on the movement's strength over all. – Vanessa WrubleRate it:
I recognize the challenge that I have before me because of the recent controversies, but I firmly believe that it is possible to restore confidence and that we will be able, after this painful process, to achieve reconciliation. – Ricardo RossellóRate it:
I recognize the enormous challenge I have before me due to the recent controversies, but I firmly believe that we can restore trust and, after this painful and shameful process, achieve reconciliation. – Governor Ricardo RosselloRate it:
I'm not the one to judge... or to consider because of Donald Trump controversies or because of Donald Trump investigations Donald Trump is less credible for me, for United States and for the rest of the world. – Emmanuel MacronRate it:
In my view, a huge portion of WikiLeaks' activities has nothing to do with legitimate newsgathering, informing the public and commenting on important public controversies, but is simply about releasing classified information to damage the US, people sometimes get cynical about journalists -- American journalists do not do that. They will almost always call us before they publish classified information and say, 'is there anything about this that is going to put lives in danger -- that is going to jeopardize government people, military people, or innocent civilians anywhere in the world?'. – James ComeyRate it:
It is so surprising that every time a movie is on the floor or about to release, then only suddenly all controversies, affairs and old issues of its actors start hitting headlines or begin flooding in the news. – Anuj SomanyRate it:

My wish is that we succeed collectively in putting into action what we signed several months ago, let’s not waste time with controversies that are created in corridors and backrooms. – Emmanuel MacronRate it:
On top of the obstruction that is in no small measure criminal in nature — with the hiding, removal and destruction of records by Mrs. Clinton — they are sending these records out to the foundation that are the very subject of these public controversies. – Tom FittonRate it:
Reputational risks can arise quickly and can rapidly affect firms, institutions associated with social or environmental controversies ... could face reputational risks as a result of changing market sentiment in relation to environmental and climate-related risks. – The ECBRate it:
The coverage of various controversies is surround sound at this point, most people have a firm view of those scandals pretty well locked in. – Michael SteelRate it:
The incident that happened in recent months has led to controversies and disputes between the public and the government. This has made me fully realize that I, as a politician, have to remind myself all the time of the need to grasp public sentiments accurately. – Carrie LamRate it:
The most savage controversies are those about matters as to which there is no good evidence either way. – Bertrand RussellRate it:
The sheer volume, magnitude, and frequency of Facebook's controversies strongly suggests that the company's whack-a-mole approach is insufficient - Facebook needs to institutionalize stronger risk oversight mechanisms. – Trillium Asset ManagementRate it:
There are controversies over what these things really are. – Nicholas ChaoRate it:
