QUOTES
A person's a person, no matter how small.
~ Dr. Seuss, Horton Hears a Who ~
Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love,
but to use violence to get what they want.
That is why the greatest destroyer of love and peace is abortion.
~ Blessed Mother Teresa ~
The profound moral question is not, "Do they [murderers] deserve to die?"
but "Do we deserve to kill them?"
~ Sister Helen Prejean ~
