First of all, do any of you here think it's a crime to help a suffering human end his agony? Any of you think it is? Say so right now. Well, then, what are we doing here?

I will admit, like Socrates and Aristotle and Plato and some other philosophers, that there are instances where the death penalty would seem appropriate.

I have no regrets, none whatsoever.

The public has no power. The government knows I'm not a criminal. The parole board knows I'm not a criminal. The judge knows I'm not a criminal.

You've gotta know what death is to know life!

If Christ can die in a barn, I think the death of a human in a van is not so bad.

I don't persuade to suicide.
