• When implemented, the Complete Lives system produces a priority curve on which individuals aged between roughly 15 and 40 years get the most substantial chance, whereas the youngest and oldest people get chances that are attenuated... The Complete Lives system justifies preference to younger people because of priority to the worst-off rather than instrumental value.

• Patients who are being kept alive by technology and want to end their lives already have a recognized constitutional right to stop any and all medical interventions, from respirators to antibiotics. They do not need physician-assisted suicide or euthanasia.

• Las vagas promesas de ahorro derivadas de la reducción del despilfarro, el fomento de la prevención y el bienestar, la instalación de historias clínicas electrónicas y la mejora de la calidad no son más que un control de costes "de boquilla", más para el espectáculo y las relaciones públicas que para un verdadero cambio... Para ahorrar habrá que cambiar la mentalidad de los médicos respecto a sus pacientes: Los médicos se toman demasiado en serio el juramento hipocrático, "como un imperativo de hacer todo por el paciente sin importar el coste o los efectos sobre los demás".

• Las vacunas infantiles son uno de los grandes triunfos de la medicina moderna. De hecho, los padres cuyos hijos están vacunados ya no tienen que preocuparse por la muerte o discapacidad de sus hijos a causa de la tos ferina, la poliomielitis, la difteria, la hepatitis o un sinfín de otras infecciones.

• Todos nos centramos en la atención sanitaria, la diabetes y las enfermedades cardiacas, pero hay todo tipo de cosas como el simple hecho de que, ya sabes, con personas más pesadas, el transporte es más caro, por lo que se gasta más en gasolina, más en combustible para aviones, la gente ha tenido que cambiar el tamaño de las puertas, el tamaño de las sillas en los aviones y en los estadios deportivos, así que hay muchos costes ocultos también por el aumento de la circunferencia de los estadounidenses.

• By establishing a social policy that keeps physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia illegal but recognizes exceptions, we would adopt the correct moral view: the onus of proving that everything had been tried and that the motivation and rationale were convincing would rest on those who wanted to end a life.

• El razonamiento basado en el coste se ha resistido enérgicamente; violaba el juramento hipocrático, se asociaba con el racionamiento y se ridiculizaba como poner precio a la vida... De hecho, muchos médicos estaban dispuestos a mentir para conseguir a los pacientes lo que necesitaban de las compañías de seguros que intentaban contener los costes.

• We had a big controversy in the United States when there was a limited number of dialysis machines. In Seattle, they appointed what they called a 'God committee' to choose who should get it, and that committee was eventually abandoned. Society ended up paying the whole bill for dialysis instead of having people make those decisions.

• The situation around Terri Schiavo was a deeply held conflict over what to do if someone isn't going to return to consciousness or competence. Who will decide? Even there, where we had settled legal rules, we still had disagreement. We're torn about these things.

• Over his illustrious career, John Harris has explored the most challenging bioethical questions with insight, engaging wit, and eloquence. In Enhancing Evolution, Harris does it again. He argues that it is not just an option but an obligation for people to use available biomedical technologies to enhance their own--and their children's--physical and mental abilities. Harris rightly deserves his reputation for fearlessly following his ethical arguments wherever they lead.

• When my children were growing up, we began every family meal - which included breakfast and dinner every day - with a prayer. We are Jewish and so it was the prayer over bread, when we were having bread, or the catch-all prayer for everything when we weren't.
