"Those who promote this last, fatal escape as a "right" should remember that such a "right" may quickly become an expectation and, finally, even a "duty" to die. We fear eventually some individuals and families will be forced to put financial concerns above the needs of loved ones. " ... from a statement against assisted suicide by members of Michigan's Religious Leaders Forum, a group of Christian, Jewish and Muslim leaders (5/7/98).

"As nobody knows what happens when we're dead, what makes people think it would be better to die than live with an illness? What happens if a greater power, i.e. God, punishes us for completing these acts?" ... from an email sent by a reader (2003).

"When we grow old or sick and we are tempted to lose heart, we should be surrounded by people who ask “How can we help?” We deserve to grow old in a society that views our cares and needs with a compassion grounded in respect, offering genuine support in our final days." ... U.S. Bishops’ 2011 Policy Statement on Assisted Suicide.

"It is only if human life is respected from conception to death that the ethics of peace is also possible and credible" ... Pope Benedict XVI in a November 2006 speech to Swiss Bishops.
