Strana 10 - Jesus loves the little children. All the children of the world Red and yellow, black and white, They are precious in His sight. Jesus loves the little children of the world.
Strana 75 - ... a law that destroys, or impairs, the lawful private contracts of citizens; a law that makes a man a judge in his own cause; or a law that takes property from A and gives it to B: It is against all reason and justice, for a people to entrust a legislature with such powers; and, therefore, it cannot be presumed that they have done it.
Strana 86 - Would we allow the police to search the sacred precincts of marital bedrooms for telltale signs of the use of contraceptives? The very idea is repulsive to the notions of privacy surrounding the marriage relationship.
Strana 87 - This right of privacy, whether it be founded in the Fourteenth Amendment's concept of personal liberty and restrictions upon state action, as we feel it is, or, as the District Court determined, in the Ninth Amendment's reservation of rights to the people, is broad enough to encompass a woman's decision whether or not to terminate her pregnancy.

I therefore marked down no votes and said this was a case that would have to stand or fall on the writing, when it was done.
Strana 47 - Art. 1195. Destroying unborn child "Whoever shall during parturition of the mother destroy the vitality or life in a child in a state of being born and before actual birth, which child would otherwise have been born alive, shall be confined in the penitentiary for life or for not less than five years.
Strana 50 - But to anyone looking at the problem more holistically as a question of how society can balance a woman's liberty with society's interest in protecting viable babies, this result seems nothing less than barbaric. The Supreme Court modified Roe somewhat in Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania v Casey.
