Ruth Bader Ginsburg: A Woman of Substance*
You can disagree without being disagreeable.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg
You can’t have it all, all at once. Who – man or woman – has it all, all at once? Over my lifespan, I think I have had it all. But in different periods of time, things were rough. And if you have a caring life partner, you help the other person when that person needs it.

Hi Laura! Thanks for sharing these quotes from RBG. That first one, about disagreeing just says so much about her and her character. I real person to model your life after, a true hero. ~smile~ Roseanne
Very true, Roseanne.
I’m still heartbroken by her passing. Her work had such real meaning for so many people’s lives. – Marty
‘real meaning’ indeed.
Wonderful post to honor her!
…a life well-lived, a life that touched many others…a ‘good example’ for generations to follow…
Thank you Tierney for stopping by.
I agree 🙂
So glad you made this post about RBG.
Thank-you, my Canadian friend.
Thank you for sharing this post and vdeo clip, Laura.
What an amazing woman!
You’re more than welcome…
Our country can learn so much from the relationship she and Antonin Scalia shared. Despite their disagreements, they didn’t let it affect their close friendship. I’m at peace knowing they are together again enjoying their mutual love of the opera.
Jill, that image has me smiling…she always wanted to be a diva (something I read a while back)!
Thank you for posting this wonderful tribute, Laura. <3 Remarkable life and woman with a lot if determination and grit! <3 Enjoy your weekend! Cheryl
“…determination and grit…” yep.
A fine woman who will be sorely missed.
Especially these days…
My heart is breaking.
-sigh-
Mine too! Such a devastating loss!
Fantastic quote! Words we should all try to live by. Thanks for sharing that inspiring video, Laura.
agreed!
What a year this has been! So sad to hear about the passing of RBG! ?
She was strong, committed and approachable and had a great sense of humor, too…
