Ruth Bader Ginsburg:

I think that the government should not be involved in making choices for people. It's a very personal decision, and it should be up to the individual to decide what's best for them, not the government. That's a fundamental right, and it's something that I feel very strongly about. And I think that it's important for us to protect that right, and to make sure that people have the freedom to make their own choices, and to live their lives as they see fit, without interference from the government.
