Abortion is a dagger twisted into the heart of a woman; and in order not to feel it, she must harden her heart in a way that men do not readily understand. They may view the matter with cold abstraction. That is both the strength and the weakness of the man. For the woman, the developing child is never an abstraction. Abstractions do not kick.
Anthony Esolen, Out of the Ashes: Rebuilding American Culture, pg.122
