Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled!
It is unjust to the blind to allow them to be brought into existence simply to lead miserable lives. A large part, if not all, of this misery and expense could be gradually eradicated by sequestration or by sterilization, if the transmitter of the defect preferred the latter - Lucien Howe
