Summary

This quote sarcastically argues that those who support abortion rights have already been born and therefore, they cannot fully understand or empathize with the perspective of an unborn fetus. It suggests that those who advocate for abortion lack the ability to genuinely identify with the potential life they are discussing. The intention behind this statement seems to question the legitimacy of advocating for something that does not directly affect or impact a person's own existence.

Since, therefore, Carneades and Cleitomachus declare that a strong inclination accompanies their credence

If you want to be a grocer, or a general, or a politician, or a judge, you will invariably become it; that is your punishment. If you never know what you want to be, if you live what some might call the dynamic life but what I will call the artistic life, if each day you are unsure of who you are and what you know you will never become anything, and that is your reward.
