be different sides of the same coin

To be two things that seem disparate but are actually related. I've always felt that environmentalism and human rights are different sides of the same coin. Those two issues are just different sides of the same coin, so you can't really deal with them separately. Absenteeism and disrespect are just different sides of the same coin, as far as the headmaster is concerned.
