We must not inflict life on children who will be resented; we must not inflict unwanted children on society.

Anne Lamott

As a Christian and a feminist, the most important message I can carry and fight for is the sacredness of each human life, and reproductive rights for all women are a crucial part of that.

We must not inflict life on children who will be resented; we must not inflict unwanted children on society.

Anne Lamott

You must not inflict life on someone who will be resented.

When one individual comes into intimate contact with another, she—or he, of course, as the case may be—must almost inevitably receive or inflict suffering.

Aldous Huxley

I will try not to overlook the cruelties that victims inflict on one another as they are jammed together in the boxcars of the system. I don’t want to romanticize them. But I do remember (in rough paraphrase) a statement I once read: “The cry of the poor is not always just, but if you don’t listen to it, you will never know what justice is.

Howard Zinn
