Ruth Bader Ginsburg Dies: Memorable Quotes By US Supreme Court Judge The 'Notorious RBG'

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg died aged 87 on September 18. She was suffering from pancreatic cancer. Ginsburg’s career that began as a professor of law to becoming only the second woman to sit on the US Supreme Court’s bench, was about making sure American women got the equal right enshrined for them under the country's Constitution. "I had the good fortune to be alive in the 1960s, then, and continuing through the 1970s," she said. "For the first time in history it became possible to urge before the courts successfully that equal justice under law requires all arms of government to regard women as persons equal in stature to men." Ginsburg’s life as a legal counsel and as a Judge on the bench of the US Supreme Court was dedicated to serving justice. Despite her diminutive frame, she has become an icon for women and liberals in the U.S. and abroad and earned the moniker 'Notorious RBG'. A film based on Judge Ginsburg was released in 2018.
