Summary

This quote expresses the belief that stem cell research holds immense potential in finding cures for degenerative illnesses such as Parkinson's and motor neuron disease. The speaker argues that using embryos as a source for these stem cells is not morally objectionable because the embryos would ultimately perish regardless of their use in research. This viewpoint suggests that the potential benefits of advancing medical knowledge and potentially saving lives outweigh any ethical concerns regarding the source of the stem cells.

Unlike the hard, iron skeleton of war, the Izzy Doll is soft

Unlike the hard, iron skeleton of war, the Izzy Doll is soft and cuddly. Not forced upon, it is given freely and accepted easily. It cannot be bought or sold therefore has no monetary power. It is created in the spirit of love and given in the same. A gesture of kindness, it brings hope to those who have lost hope. It is created by and distributed by volunteers, all who are in the mood for peace. In a world full of woes and wrongs, it is cheerful and right. And it is a gift of peace.from In the Mood for Peace: the Story of the Izzy Doll
