July 1, 2005
"Justice O'Connor is a pioneer and a role model to a generation of Americans, but especially to young women who care about government, public service and the law. I am grateful for her example and her commitment to putting the Constitution above ideology. As she retires, she is remembered for her open mind, balanced perspective and thoughtful, principled jurisprudence."
