An Unknown Quality of Life

"At a rally in 1983 for those opposed to abortion, to me the most moving argument was made by Alison Davis, who described herself as 'a happy spina bifida adult' and spoke from a wheelchair. 'I can think of few concepts more terrifying,' she said, 'than saying that certain people are better off dead, and may therefore be killed for their own good.' One doctor, on hearing her say that she was glad to be alive, 'made the incredible observation that no one can judge their own quality of life, and that other people might well consider a life like mine miserable!'"

The Real Horror of Abortion

"The real horror of abortion is not that a woman kills an unborn child but that a woman kills her own unborn child."
