Jack Kevorkian
My intent was to carry out my duty as a doctor, to end their suffering. Unfortunately, that entailed, in their cases, ending of the life.
Jack Kevorkian

None of them want to delay. Understand that. None of them.
Jack Kevorkian
I am not a sentimental person.
Jack Kevorkian
You've gotta know what death is to know life!
Jack Kevorkian
The public has no power. The government knows I'm not a criminal. The parole board knows I'm not a criminal. The judge knows I'm not a criminal.
Jack Kevorkian
Many support what I am doing.
Jack Kevorkian
I have no regrets, none whatsoever.
Jack Kevorkian
