Pope Francis on Abortion:
“Is it fair to eliminate a human life in order to solve a problem? The answer to which is: no. Second question: Is it fair to pay a sniper to solve a problem? No. Abortion is not a religious problem in the sense that just because I am Catholic I must not seek an abortion. It is a human problem. It is a problem of eliminating a human life. Period.”
President Biden on Abortion:
“Roe v. Wade must remain the law of the land.”

Quotes from celebrities who were almost aborted:
I wanted to meet my biological mother mostly to see if she was okay and to thank her, because I'm glad I didn't end up as an abortion. She was twenty-three and she went through a lot to have me.
- Steve JobsI’m pro-choice but against abortion because I’m an illegitimate child myself and it would be hypocritical to take any other position. I’d be dead. I wouldn’t exist.
- Jack NicholsonThe doctors ... suggested that she abort the child ... because the baby would be born with some disability. But the young brave wife decided not to abort, and the child was born. That woman was my mother, and I was the child. Maybe I'm partisan, but I can say that it was the right choice.
- Andrea Bocelli
