About this Quote
This quote by Polly Toynbee suggests that the right to die has actually been a popular opinion for a very long time. The surveys have revealed that over 80% of individuals have supported the right to die for the previous 25 years. This assistance is not restricted to any particular group, as even 80% of practicing Catholics and Protestants, in addition to 76% of Church Times readers, are in favour of the right to pass away. This recommends that the right to pass away is an extensively accepted viewpoint, and that it has actually been for a long time. It is most likely that the right to pass away will continue to be a popular opinion in the future.
