The Jews were gassed. Armenians were killed in every conceivable way... So the Holocaust doesn't interest me, see? They've had a lot of publicity, but they didn't suffer as much.

More quotes by Jack Kevorkian
Am I a criminal? The world knows I'm not a criminal. What are they trying to put me in jail for? You've lost common sense in this society because of religious fanaticism and dogma.
Jack Kevorkian
As a medical doctor, it is my duty to evaluate the situation with as much data as I can gather and as much expertise as I have and as much experience as I have to determine whether or not the wish of the patient is medically justified.
Jack Kevorkian
The American Medical Association says the humane way is to let people starve and thirst to death. If you did that to an animal, youd be put in jail immediately ... In the face of such insanity masquerading as authority, who wouldnt be strident?
Jack Kevorkian
I'm trying to knock the medical profession into accepting its responsibilities, and those responsibilities include assisting their patients with death.
Jack Kevorkian
I always said all my life, if I wasn't born and they gave me the question, I'd say, I don't want to be born.
Jack Kevorkian
I'm for absolute autonomy of the individual, and an adult, competent woman has absolute autonomy. It's her choice.
Jack Kevorkian
When your conscience says law is immoral, don't follow it.
Jack Kevorkian
I'm not the kind of guy who has best friends.
Jack Kevorkian
Listen, when you take my liberty away, you've taken away more-something more precious than life. I mean, what good is a life without liberty? Huh? None.
Jack Kevorkian
You've gotta know what death is to know life!
Jack Kevorkian
If a man is terrified, it's up to me to dispel that terror.
Jack Kevorkian
I don't crave publicity, you know.
Jack Kevorkian
What are friends? Some people are nice. Some people aren't. There are some I'm fairly close with... we talk.
Jack Kevorkian
I didn't do this for other people I did this for me. I fought for this right for me - does that sound selfish?
Jack Kevorkian
Among doctors in general, I think more than half support what I'm doing.
Jack Kevorkian
Anytime you interfere with a natural process, you're playing God. God determines what happens naturally. That means when a person's ill, he shouldn't go to a doctor because he's asking for interference with God's will. But of course, patients can't think that way.
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
This is not a trial. This is a lynching. There is no law.
Jack Kevorkian
First of all, do any of you here think it's a crime to help a suffering human end his agony? Any of you think it is? Say so right now. Well, then, what are we doing here?
Jack Kevorkian
I'm not lying to myself like most people.
