: These quotes are also from the 1920s ... just a little bit outdated. And the first quote you put up about being merciful, makes sense if you read the whole paragraph. Margaret says that children in poor large families will likely have health problems (malnutrition, poor constitution, etc) so maybe the only humane thing to do is not have them suffer through childhood. "The probability of a child handicapped by a weak constitution, an overcrowded home, inadequate food and care, and possibly a deficient mental equipment, winding up in prison or an almshouse, is too evident for comment."

:: Here's a quote from Sanger's autobiography ''Margaret Sanger, An Autobiography'' that should be included: "To each group we explained what contraception was; that abortion was the wrong way—no matter how early it was performed it was taking life; that contraception was the better way, the safer way—it took a little time, a little trouble, but was well worth while in the long run, because life had not yet begun."
