What looks like enjoyment is the sneer of contempt. That's not a smile.

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.

I'm trying to knock the medical profession into accepting its responsibilities, and those responsibilities include assisting their patients with death.

Among doctors in general, I think more than half support what I'm doing.

I didn't do this for other people; I did this for me. I fought for this right for me - does that sound selfish?

I gambled and I lost. I failed in securing my options for this choice for myself, but I succeeded in verifying the Dark Age is still with us.

I'm for absolute autonomy of the individual, and an adult, competent woman has absolute autonomy. It's her choice.
