When I was president, I announced and I still maintain that I can live with Roe v. Wade. I did everything I possibly could as president under that ruling, which I don’t think ought to be changed, to minimize the need for abortions. I think every abortion is a result of a horrible series of errors on the part of people involved. – Jimmy Carter

Some people are really nice about it. I get Saudi princes and famous people stopping me in L.A. and saying, ‘You’re Stifler’s mom.

I want people to come away with something to think about.’ – Joss Whedon
