Birth Control Pills

Famous quotes containing the words birth control, birth, control and/or pills:

    Birth control that really works: Every night before we go to bed we spend an hour with our kids.
    Roseanne Barr Arnold (20th century)

    O take fast hold; let that light be thy guide
    In this small course which birth draws out to death,
    Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)

    There is one thing you and I as parents cannot do, not do we want to do if we really think about it, and that’s control our children’s will—that spirit that lets them be themselves apart from you and me. They are not ours to possess, control, manipulate, or even to make mind.
    Barbara Coloroso (20th century)

    ... the black girls didn’t get these pills because their black ministers were up on the pulpit saying that birth control pills were black genocide. What I’m saying is that black men have exploited black women.... They didn’t want them to have any choice about their reproductive health. And if you can’t control your reproduction, you can’t control your life.
    Joycelyn Elders (b. 1933)
