Prince Philip Duke of Edinburgh
leader of the World Wildlife Fund
"If I were reincarnated I would wish to be returned to earth as a
killer virus to lower human population levels."
- quoted in 'Are You Ready For Our New Age Future?', Insiders Report, American
Policy Center, December '95)
Eleanor Dwight Jones
(Social Darwinist)
Head of the American Birth Control League
"The time is ripe for us to launch throughout the country a
systematic campaign against the present disgenic multiplication of the unfit. The public
is beginning to realize that scientific, constructive philanthropy does not merely care
for the diseased, the poor and the degenerated, but takes steps to prevent the birth of
babies destined to be paupers, invalids, degenerates, or all three."
writing to Lawrence B. Dunham, director of the Bureau of Social Hygiene, Nov. 5, 1930
"The second half of our program is to secure the cooperation of
the social agencies in these cities in getting the women of the lowest social and economic
class to avail themselves of the contraceptive advice offered them... We ... are
concentrating on the practical work of making it possible for the lower social classes to
practice birth control. For the good of the race, people of poor stock - incompetant and
sickly - should have few or no children, and fortunately they want few or no children. In
this matter private interest is in accord with public interest. That is the strength of
the birth control movement."
Dr. Martin Haskell
"...[D]octors use this method of abortion because they find
dismemberment (dilation and extraction) at twenty weeks and beyond to be difficult due to
the toughness of fetal tissue."
- a quote from his presentation on partial-birth abortion in Dallas, Texas in 1992
Robert McNamara
Former Secretary of Defense
"The commitment of government to deal with the population issue
is of course essential
.There are many ways to make the death rate Increase."
HRH Prince Philip
Duke of Edinburgh
"I don't claim to have any special interest in natural history,
but as a boy I was made aware of the annual fluctuations in the number of game animals and
the need to adjust the ``cull'' to the size of the surplus population."
- preface to "Down to Earth" 1988, p.8.
