21 Quotes by Margaret Sanger that Every Pro-Lifer Should Know
These quotes by Margaret Sanger, founder of
Planned Parenthood, reveal the wicked roots of the abortion movement and expose
the twisted mindset behind the present-day Culture of Death. In her own
words, Sanger peddles racism, eugenics, contraception, abortion, while
demonstrating a visceral hatred for children, parenthood, marriage and the
Catholic Church.
If you want to open more eyes to the truth, please share
these quotes far and wide. Only when the abortion agenda is fully rejected
in our culture will America be ready to turn back to God.

motherhood in every individual woman. -- Woman and the New Race,
