Quotes to Note

The number of women diagnosed with breast cancer is growing.

In 1970, before the U.S. Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade decision which legalized abortion, 1 in 12 women was diagnosed with breast cancer.

Today [2004], it is 1 in 7 women.

Every 40 minutes a woman is diagnosed with breast cancer that is attributable to abortion. That's 13,000 cases of breast cancer attributable to abortion each year.

Feminists for Life of America, 9/04

"Comparing the maternal mortality risk of childbirth to that of abortion, when proper weight is given to the increased risk of breast cancer and suicide due to abortion, and the decreased risk of ovarian cancer with full-term pregnancy, abortion is many times more hazardous to the mother in the long run than carrying a child to term."

-- Chris Kahlenborn M.D., "Breast Cancer: Abortion and the Pill"
