Couples should be required to submit applications to have a child...

The first right of every child is to be wanted, to be desired, to be planned for with an intensity of love that gives it its title to being.

Usually this desire [for family limitation] has been laid to economic pressure It has asserted itself among the rich and among the poor, among the intelligent and the unintelligent. It has been manifested in such horrors as infanticide, child abandonment and abortion.

I cannot refrain from saying that women must come to recognize there is some function of womanhood other than being a child-bearing machine.

No more children should be born when the parents, though healthy themselves, find that their children are physically or mentally defective.

No woman shall have the legal right to bear a child without a permit for parenthood.
