"I am not a fan of the term 'judicial activism.' I think it's a code word for 'I don't like what the court did.'"
"I think the law should be a tool for good. To make things better for people."
"One of the things that I'm proudest of is that I was a law professor and I taught at Rutgers and at Columbia, and I was able to show young women that they could be lawyers too."
"I think that the court should be a beacon of hope."
"I'm still a work in progress."
Associate Justice of the US Supreme Court (1993-2020), gender-equality litigator at the ACLU Women's Rights Project before the bench, and the second woman ever appointed. Closely associated with Sandra Day O'Connor (first woman Justice and her predecessor in that role) and Elena Kagan (Obama-appointed colleague). For an intellectual contrast, see Antonin Scalia, conservative originalist Justice (1936-2016) — RBG and Scalia disagreed on nearly every major constitutional case but maintained a famous personal friendship over opera. Their friendship-across-doctrinal-divide became the canonical example of judicial collegiality despite total disagreement — and Scalia's originalism vs RBG's living-Constitution liberalism are the cleanest two American constitutional methodologies.
