关于避孕Birth Control的名言




Condoms aren't completely safe. A friend of mine was wearing one and got hit by a bus.

安全套一点都不安全。我有一个朋友戴着一个就被公交车撞了。

~Bob Rubin(1938- )美国前财政部长



The best contraceptive is the word no - repeated frequently.

最好的避孕方法是说不——反复的说。

~Margaret Smith



Contraceptives should be used on every conceivable occasion.

避孕措施应该用在任何可以想得到的场合。

~Spike Milligan(1918-2002)



Familiarity breeds contempt - and children.

熟悉产生不在乎——还有小孩。

~Mark Twain(1835-1910),美国作家



We all worry about the population explosion, but we don't worry about it at the right time.

我们都担心人口爆炸,但我们在最适合担心的时候却没有担心。

~Arthur Hoppe(1926-2000)



It is now quite lawful for a Catholic woman to avoid pregnancy by a resort to mathematics, though she is still forbidden to resort to physics or chemistry.

现在对于一个天主教女人,采用数学方法避孕是合法的,但求助于物理或化学方法还是被禁止的。

~H.L. Mencken(1880-1956)



He no play-da-game. He no make-a-da rules!

他(教皇)不比赛,就不应该定规则。

~Earl Butz(1909- )美国前农业部长, referring to the Pope's stricture against contraception



The best contraceptive is a glass of cold water: not before or after, but instead.

最好的避孕方法是一杯冷水:不是在之前或之后,而是用它代替。

I want to tell you a terrific story about oral contraception. I asked this girl to sleep with me and she said "No."

When the history of civilization is written, it will be a biological history and Margaret Sanger will be its heroine.

当文明史被书写的时候,它将会是一个生物史,而玛格丽特·桑格将是它的主人公。

~H.G. Wells(1866-1946)英国科幻作家



A birth control pill for men, that's fair. It makes more sense to take the bullets out of the gun than to wear a bulletproof vest.

给男人服节育药才是公平的。将子弹拿出枪要比穿防弹衣更合理。

~Author Unknown



Those who in principle oppose birth control are either incapable of arithmetic or else in favor of war, pestilence and famine as permanent features of human life.

那些在原则上反对节育的人要不是不懂得算术,就是想要让战争,鼠疫和灾害成为人类历史的永久特征。

~Bertrand Russell(1872-1970)英国哲学家




It would be a service to mankind if the pill were available in slot machines and the cigarette were placed on prescription.

如果避孕药可以从自动售货机上得到,而香烟可以出现在药方上,那对人类将是个福利。

~Malcolm Potts, MD(1952- )美国科学家



No woman can call herself free who does not own and control her body. No woman can call herself free until she can choose consciously whether she will or will not be a mother.

没有女人可以自称自由,如果不能拥有和控制自己的身体。没有女人可以自称自由,除非她有意识的选择她要不要当一个母亲。

~Margaret Sanger(1879-1966)美国节制生育运动先驱



It needs to become as easy to get hold of a condom in a poor country as Coca-Cola.

在一个贫穷国家,获得安全套应该变得像获得可口可乐那样容易。

~Clare Short(1946- )



For most women, including women who want to have children, contraception is not an option; it is a basic health care necessity.

对于大部分妇女,包括想要孩子的女人,避孕不是备选项;它是必要的基本健康保障。

~Louise Slaughter(1929- )
