If I resign any time this year, he [President Obama] could not successfully appoint anyone I would like to see in the court. ... [A]nybody who thinks that if I step down, Obama could appoint someone like me, they’re misguided.more Ruth Bader Ginsburg quotes | The impact of all these restrictions is on poor women, because women who have means, if their state doesn’t provide access, another state does. ...
It makes no sense as a national policy to promote birth only among poor people.more Ruth Bader Ginsburg quotes | [U]nder the United States Constitution, effective population-control programs, even including laws requiring compulsory abortion, could be sustained under the existing Constitution if the population crisis became sufficiently severe to endanger the society.more John Holdren quotes | Apply a stern and rigid policy of sterilization and segregation to that grade of population whose progeny is tainted, or whose inheritance is such that objectionable traits may be transmitted to offspring.more Margaret Sanger quotes | As an advocate for birth control, I wish to take advantage of the present opportunity to point out that the unbalance between the birth rate of the 'unfit' and the 'fit', admittedly the greatest present menace to civilization, can never be rectified by the inauguration of a cradle competition between these two classes.more Margaret Sanger quotes | I accepted an invitation to talk to the women's branch of the Ku Klux Klan...I was escorted to the platform, was introduced, and began to speak...In the end, through simple illustrations, I believed I had accomplished my purpose. A dozen invitations to speak to similar groups were proffered.more Margaret Sanger quotes | I think the greatest sin in the world is bringing children into the world, that have disease from their parents, they have no chance in the world to be a human being practically...Delinquents, prisoners, all sorts of things just marked when they're born. That to me is the greatest sin -- that people can -- can commit.more Margaret Sanger quotes | No woman shall have the legal right to bear a child, and no man shall have the right to become a father, without a permit for parenthood.more Margaret Sanger quotes | ...these two words [birth control] sum up our whole philosophy...It means the release and cultivation of better elements in our society, and the gradual suppression, elimination, and eventual extinction, of defective stocks -- those human weeds which threaten the blooming of the finest flowers of American civilization.more Margaret Sanger quotes | [N]o one can doubt that there are times when an abortion is justifiable but they will become unnecessary when care is taken to prevent conception. This is the only cure for abortions.more Margaret Sanger quotes | [W]hile there are cases where even the law recognizes an abortion as justifiable if recommended by a physician, I assert that the hundreds of thousands of abortions performed in America each year are a disgrace to civilization.more Margaret Sanger quotes | But you can start immediately to eliminate the barely
educated, unhealthy and poor segment of our country. No,
I'm, not advocating some, sort of mass extinction of these
unfortunate people. Crime, drugs and disease are already
doing that. The problem is that their numbers are not only
replaced but increased by the birth of millions of babies to
people who can't afford to have babies.
There, I've said it. It's what we all know is true,
but we only whisper it, because as liberals who believe in
individual rights, we view any program which might treat the
disadvantaged differently as discriminatory, mean-spirited
and...well...so Republican.more Ron Weddington quotes | Condoms alone won't do it. Depo-Provera, Norplant and
the new birth control injection being developed in India are
not a complete answer ...
No, government is also going to have to provide
vasectomies, tubal ligations and abortions...RU 486 and
conventional abortions. Even if we make birth control as
ubiquitous as sneakers and junk food, there will still be
unplanned pregnancies.more Ron Weddington quotes |
