The world should stand with those oppressed people until the day of their freedom finally arrives. -- Tsakhiagiin Elbegdorj
  • Stem cell research is the key to developing cures for degenerative conditions like Parkinson's and motor neuron disease from which I and many others suffer. The fact that the cells may come from embryos is not an objection, because the embryos are going to die anyway. -- Stephen Hawking
