To destroy the fetus 'is something worse than murder.' The one who does this 'does not take away life that has already been born, but prevents it from being born.'
Saint John Chrysostom
'To terminate the fetus 'is something more atrocious than homicide.' The one who commits this 'does not take away a life that has already been born, but hinders it from coming into existence.'

The fetus, in many cases, dies just as a human adult or child would: It bleeds to death as it is torn from limb from limb. The fetus can be alive at the beginning of the dismemberment process and can survive for a time while its limbs are being torn off.
Anthony Kennedy

In the case of abortion, one pits the life of the fetus against the interests of the pregnant woman.
Leon Kass

The measure would set criminal penalties, the same as those that would apply if harm or death happened to the pregnant woman, for those who harm a fetus.
Ken Calvert

The narrative was too constricted; it was like a fetus strangling on its own umbilical cord.
John Gregory Dunne

A woman who deliberately destroys a fetus is answerable for murder. And any fine distinction as to its being completely formed or unformed is not admissible amongst us.
Saint Basil

Make it a crime to harm a fetus during another crime.
Jerry Weller

There's a a right to privacy for all individuals and all who have legal rights - and that includes the unborn. As an obstetrician, if I cause any harm to a fetus, I will be sued. If someone kills or harms a fetus they're liable in a court of law.
Ron Paul

The rich women, to avoid dividing the inheritance among many, kill their own fetus in the womb and with murderous juices extinguish in the genital chamber their children.
Ambrose

We would not think of allowing a man to determine a woman's life merely because a fetus he helped create was in her womb; then why would we allow a woman to determine a man's life merely because a fetus he helped create is in her womb?
Warren Farrell

What is fetus farming? Simply put, it is the creation and development of a human fetus for the purposes of later killing it for research or for harvesting its organs.
Nathan Deal

Did you know that mako shark fetuses eat each other in the womb?... Its true. Only cannibal fetuses survive to be born. Can you imagine if people were like that?
Laini Taylor

The use of fetuses as organ and tissue donors is a ticking time bomb of bioethics.
Arthur Caplan

Before a baby is born, you have a baby shower, not a fetus shower.
June Hunt

Does the unborn human fetus have at any point the right to live?
Dennis Prager

Every life is different; being pro-life is not only about saving the fetus, being pro-life is about all the stages of life.
Nat Hentoff

I like to think of myself less like 'an adult' and more like a 'former fetus.'
Anna Kendrick

Scientifically, there's no debate over whether the fetus is alive and human.
Ron Paul

What it gives any human being a right to - to pick and choose which embryo - which fetus is more valuable than another. That's is not up to human beings.
Nadya Suleman

She who has intentionally destroyed [the fetus] is subject to the penalty corresponding to a homicide. For us, there is no scrutinizing between the formed and unformed [fetus]; here truly justice is made not only for the unborn but also with reference to the person who is attentive only to himself/herself since so many women generally die for this very reason.
Saint Basil
24.
If I were president, I would turn the tables and allow the fetus to abort its mother.
David Sedaris
25.
In the Seventies, women runners, developing amenorrhea and calcium-related shin splints, were the first to realize that nature is hovering over us, ready to shut down our systems if our fetus-feeding fat reserve drops below a certain percentage of body weight. In other words, in nature's eyes we are nothing but milk sacs and fat deposits.
Camille Paglia
26.
So the time line of when we consider a fetus 'human' is arbitrary after conception.
Ron Paul
27.
No doctor is going to do an abortion on a live fetus. That doesn't happen. Doctors don't do that. If they do, they'll get their license pulled, as well they should.
Howard Dean
28.
The Old Testament does, in fact, seem to make a distinction between the life of a child and the life of a fetus.
Mark Galli

'The Lorax,'...it's a mythical, woodland creature, right, who's for saving trees. He speaks for the trees because no one else can. Kind of the way conservatives speak for fetuses.
Bill Maher
30.
Americans of faith should try as hard to save the lives of African women as the lives of unborn fetuses.
Nicholas D. Kristof

When a play enters my consciousness, is already a fairly well-developed fetus. I don't put down a word until the play seems ready to be written.
Edward Albee

I keep having these bros come up to me and say, "I used to watch you when I was a fetus," and I just want to kill them.
Nick Offerman

With all due respect, if you’re forty-three, then I’m a fetus.
