Prior to ROE V. WADE, abortions were common even though they were illegal. I don't think making them illegal again is going to solve the problem. (Tony Campolo) >> More Tony Campolo Quotations...
On the issues that I care deeply about - the environment, Roe vs. Wade, the war in Iraq, with no weapons of mass destruction, the tax cuts that are now leading to deficits, I've got some deep issues with the president. (Lincoln Chafee) >> More Lincoln Chafee Quotations...
By the time I was in high school, Roe v. Wade had passed, so that was also happening; girls were getting pregnant and getting abortions - and that happened in my school too. (Annette Bening) >> More Annette Bening Quotations...
Even today, when society's views on abortion are changing, the very existence of the debate is evidence that the right' to an abortion is not so universally accepted as (Roe) would have us believe. (William Rehnquist) >> More William Rehnquist Quotations...
Frankly, I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don't want to have too many of. (Ruth Bader Ginsburg) >> More Ruth Bader Ginsburg Quotations...
A vast abortion industry, generating some half a billion dollars annually, sprang into existence in the wake of Roe and Doe. (Robert Casey) >> More Robert Casey Quotations...
Indeed, an entire generation of Americans has grown to adulthood since the Roe decision of 1973, which held that the right to choose an abortion was a privacy right protected by our Constitution. (Robert Casey) >> More Robert Casey Quotations...
For thirty years, beginning with the invention of a privacy right in the Supreme Court decision Roe v. Wade, the Left has been waging a systematic assault on the constitutional foundation of the nation. (David Horowitz) >> More David Horowitz Quotations...
First, he found in the Texas anti-abortion law no violation of due process because the traditional test--rational relation to a valid state objective--was easily satisfied. As to the majority in Roe having cranked up the test--the law could be sustained only if the State could show a compelling state interest, ... the history of the Fourteenth Amendment. (William Rehnquist) >> More William Rehnquist Quotations...
Reproductive choice has to be straightened out. There will never be a woman of means without choice anymore. That just seems to me so obvious. The states that changed their abortion laws before Roe are not going to change back. So we have a policy that only affects poor women, and it can never be otherwise. (Ruth Bader Ginsburg) >> More Ruth Bader Ginsburg Quotations...
They're all focusing on how John Roberts is going to decide Roe v. Wade. That isn't even the right question. I don't even know of a case in the (court) system that addresses it. (Jay Alan Sekulow) >> More Jay Alan Sekulow Quotations...
Roe is based on an extreme intrusion by the government literally to force a woman to continue a pregnancy she doesn't want. There's nothing equivalent for men. They have the same ability as women to use contraception, to get sterilized. (Jennifer Brown) >> More Jennifer Brown Quotations...
