“Human life is sacred because from its beginning it involves the creative action of God and remains for ever in a special relationship with the Creator, who is its sole end. God alone is the Lord of life from its beginning until its end: no one can under any circumstances claim for himself the right directly to destroy an innocent human being.” CCC 2258

Mother Teresa to America:
"The greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion, because it is a war against the child, a direct killing of the innocent child, murder by the mother herself. And if we accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another?" (Speech at the National Prayer Breakfast, February 3, 1994)
