David Benatar Quotes

I am under no illusions. My position, no matter how clearly stated, is likely to be misunderstood Picture Quote #1

As we have seen, nobody is lucky enough not to be born, everybody is unlucky enough to have been born – and particularly bad luck it is Picture Quote #1

Creating new people, by having babies, is so much a part of human life that it is rarely thought even to require a justification. Indeed, most people do not even think about whether they should or should not make a baby. They just make one. In other words, procreation is usually the consequence of sex rather than the result of a decision to bring people into existence. Those who do indeed decide to have a child might do so for any number of reasons, but among these reasons cannot be the interests of the potential child. One can never have a child for that child’s sake Picture Quote #1

On my view there is no net benefit to coming into existence and thus coming into existence is never worth its costs Picture Quote #1
