- “I Killed a part of myself…” Actress Bette Davis speaking about her abortion in Vanity Fair, March 2006
- After abortion “my marriage was never the same. Something was gone. It broke my heart.” — Judie Garland
- “The abortion itself was painful, and there was nothing to ease the pain. The procedure is demeaning; the poor woman lies flat on her back, legs up in those hateful stirrups with an impersonal tool ready to enter her body and remove something very personal. After it was over, I went in and sat in a chair and sobbed — partly from physical pain, partly because I felt totally devastated. Since then, I’ve wondered how well a man could endure such an experience.” — Gennifer Flowers (had an abortion with Bill Clinton)
- “I sat in the women’s clinic waiting room, wondering what was going on just three rooms away as doctors (were) tearing out the brains of our child with a pair of forceps.” — Marilyn Manson
