Major Leonard Darwin, speaking at the Second International Eugenics Congress, at the AMNH around September 25, 1921:
“It is very difficult to induce lawmakers to pass laws for the benefit of the unborn who have no votes”
From the same session:
“Dr Davenport said that the study of eugenics must progress until proofs of its contentions are piled high and have impressed the general community, before political action becomes a possibility”
