"Children of the atom, students of Charles Xavier. MUTANTS -- feared and hated by the world they have sworn to protect. These are the STRANGEST heroes of all!"

- Intro

Uncanny X-Men
"Who was it, Ororo, told me Wolverine was an X-Man. Not because of his "sterling" character, but his potential for good. That to deny him -- though we abhor his violent nature -- would thereby deny our true reason for being, which is to help him achieve that potential. The same argument holds for Rogue, does it not? Of course, there's a risk in accepting her -- but consider the alternative. At least with us she has a chance for a better life. Deny her and we condemn her outright... and that I will never do -- to any mutant -- as long as breath remains within me."
