Fortune Quote #3412
When a man steals to satisfy hunger, we may safely conclude that there is
something wrong in society - so when a woman destroys the life of her
unborn child, it is an evidence that either by education or circumstances
she has been greatly wronged. -- Mattie Brinkerhoff, 1869

Men must no longer insult all womanhood by saying that freedom means the
degradation of woman. Every woman knows that if she were free, she would
never bear an unwished-for child, nor think of murdering one before its
birth. -- Victoria Woodhull, 1875

Fortune Quote #3410
A man is expected to be mature when he fathers a child; he is expected to
endure inconvenience and hardship, if necessary, to provide the means to
bring up a child and go through college, even if this requires taking an
extra job or working late at night.... But the woman, according to
feminists, is so selfish, immature, irrational, and hysterical that she
cannot stand the fact of nine months of inconvenience in order to bring
life to another person or to bring happiness, perhaps, to some other family
who might adopt that child. -- D. James Kennedy

Whenever I see an unmarried woman carrying a child, my first response is
one of respect. I know she could have taken the quick fix without anyone
knowing, but she chose instead to let an innocent child live. --

The prochoice position always overlooks the victim's right to choose. The
women don't choose rape. The blacks didn't choose slavery. The Jews
didn't choose the ovens. And the babies don't choose abortion. --

challenge too great. -- Ronald Reagan, January 5, 1974

Repeal the Missouri compromise---repeal all compromises---repeal the

mouth will continue to speak. -- Abraham Lincoln

We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not
because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will

that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling
to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too.
