"The world has lost the power to blush over its vice; the Church has lost her power to weep over it."
- Leonard Ravenhill Dr. Henry Morgentaler performed abortions before they were legal and was instrumental in getting laws changed to make abortion easier and more accessible to women. He often received death threats, his clinics were often raided and a few were even firebombed. Yet Morgentaler persisted and eventually opened abortion clinics throughout Canada. In 2008 the Canadian government honoured him as member of the Order of Canada.
When he passed away at the age of 90 many Members of Parliament made positive comments regarding his work and praised him for his important accomplishments. But one conservative MP said: "it's always sad when anybody passes and I hope he made things right with his Maker." An eastern monarch charged his wise to invent an aphorism which would be true at all times and in all situations. Their answer was, "And this, too, shall pass away."
