More from Ruth Bader Ginsburg
"I think that the court should be a place where fundamental rights are protected."
"I think it's important to be true to yourself. To not compromise your values."
"I do think that the court has become more politicized. It was not always thus. I mean, the justices were not appointed for partisan reasons."
"I think the notion that a woman's place is in the home, you know, is one that a lot of people still hold."
"The emphasis must be not on the right to abortion but on the right to privacy and reproductive control."
About Ruth Bader Ginsburg (1933-2020)
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.
