Aristotle
Greek - Philosopher
384 BC - 322 BC

One would have thought that it was even more necessary to limit population than property; and that the limit should be fixed by calculating the chances of mortality in the children, and of sterility in married persons. The neglect of this subject, which in existing states is so common, is a never-failing cause of poverty among the citizens; and poverty is the parent of revolution and crime.

Aristotle

Poverty is the parent of revolution and crime.

Aristotle

If we as a nation are to break the cycle of poverty, crime and the growing underclass of young people ill equipped to be productive citizens, we need to not only implement effective programs to prevent teen pregnancy, but we must also help those who have already given birth so that they become effective, nurturing, bonding parents.

Jane Fonda

Natural Family Planning works and is as effective, and sometimes more effective, than the birth control methods out there.

Abby Johnson

I do not pretend that birth control is the only way in which population can be kept from increasing. There are others, which, one must suppose, opponents of birth control would prefer.

Bertrand Russell

Poverty can turn a person into a flaming torch for change and revolution, without which mankind would come to a standstill.

Jean Sasson

Romney, Gingrich, Santorum spent their week lecturing America about the morality of birth control. You know, you guys don't need birth control, you are birth control.

Bill Maher

There are but three events which concern man: birth, life and death. They are unconscious of their birth, they suffer when they die, and they neglect to live.

Jean de la Bruyere

The acceptability of birth control has always depended on a morality that separates sex from reproduction. In the nineteenth century, when the birth control movement began, such a separation was widely considered immoral. The eventual widespread public acceptance of birth control required a major reorientation of sexual values.

Linda Gordon

We're more effective than birth control pills.

Johnny Carson

A family reunion is an effective form of birth control.

Robert A. Heinlein

I think one of the biggest mistakes that America has made - and maybe the world because this is, sort of, the core of communism and socialism - is that you can have perfect solutions to social problems like poverty, like crime. You're not going to eliminate all crime. Maybe you'll never eliminate all poverty.

Rudy Giuliani

Knife crime and gun crime is poverty-driven, and poverty leads to insecurity.

Emmanuel Jal

It remains to be seen which program will cause greater societal damage: China's one-child policy or America's one-parent policy.

P. J. O'Rourke

One of the major causes of poverty is a lack of family planning. Governments and nonprofit organizations need to encourage poor people to use birth control so that they don't have unexpected babies, which will only make poorer families poorer.

Philip Kotler

If we neglect or abandon those who are suffering in poverty ... not only are we depriving ourselves of potential opportunities for markets and economic growth, but ultimately that despair may turn to violence that turns on us.

Barack Obama
