One of our favourite Ginsberg quotes:

“When I'm sometimes asked when will there be enough [women on the Supreme Court] and I say, 'When there are nine,' people are shocked. But there'd been nine men, and nobody's ever raised a question about that.”

'There was a time when Ginsburg used less-sweeping terms in her push for gender equality. As an advocate in the 1970s, she made her mark as an incrementalist, recognizing that pushing an all-male Supreme Court too hard could prove counterproductive.'
