Can you tell me the source of that quote? I would love to use it again and again but I want to make certain that she actually said it and where it came from. I don't want to post a quote and then look like an idiot to find out it did not apprear.

Thanks.

"The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it."
- Margaret Sanger, Women and the New Race (Eugenics Publ. Co., 1920, 1923)

You can find a reference to the quote at wikipedia. For the record she proposed sterilization and birth control not abortion as a method to achieve her utopia. That was likely due to the fact that abortion was not only illegal but considered a dastardly thing to do at the time. My, how things change.
