Abortion clinic owner and founder Merle Hoffman (now retired):
“I remember this 14 year old, and too many of the others like her. I remember that when she went into the recovery room [after her abortion] I gave her a stuffed animal to hold and seeing her clutch it in a gesture of natural protection pondered on how sex and abortion had irrevocably altered the nature and reality of childhood -of her childhood.
And so it comes to me that one may view abortion ultimately as a “choice of victims”.
