• Feminism … I think the simplest explanation, and one that captures the idea, is a song that Marlo Thomas sang, 'Free to be You and Me.' Free to be, if you were a girl—doctor, lawyer, Indian chief. Anything you want to be. And if you’re a boy, and you like teaching, you like nursing, you would like to have a doll, that’s OK too. That notion that we should each be free to develop our own talents, whatever they may be, and not be held back by artificial barriers—manmade barriers, certainly not heaven sent.

• Me concebía en gran parte como profesora. No había una gran comprensión de la discriminación de género. La gente sabía que la discriminación racial era algo odioso, pero había muchos que pensaban que todas las diferencias basadas en el género en la ley operaban benignamente a favor de las mujeres. Así que mi objetivo era llevar al Tribunal paso a paso a la comprensión, en palabras del juez Brennan, de que el pedestal en el que algunos pensaban que estaban las mujeres resultaba ser con demasiada frecuencia una jaula.
