Stanford Students for Life has launched a flyering campaign that provokes students and others on campus to question the status quo of legalized abortion. Below are the content of these flyers and their corresponding sources.

"I am 100 percent pro-life. No compromises, no exceptions."
	Norma McCorvey, aka Jane Roe of Roe v. Wade, now a prolife activist
"Roe v. Wade seems like a durable decision. It is, nevertheless, a very bad decision. ...It is bad because it is bad constitutional law, or rather because it is not constitutional law and gives almost no sense of an obligation to try to be."
	John Ely Hart, former dean of Stanford Law School, pro-choice progressive
"Repeating the big lie often enough convinces the public. The number of women dying from illegal abortions was around 200-250 annually. The figure we constantly fed to the media was 10,000."
	Bernard Nathanson, Co-founder of NARAL and former abortion provider
"When a woman destroys the life of her unborn child, it is a sign that, by education or circumstances, she has been greatly wronged."
	Susan B. Anthony, feminist and opponent of abortion
