after she delivered a scathing dissent.

in laying the foundation.

Judge do you swear the testimony you are about to give

will be the whole truth and nothing but the truth,

so help you God?

- I do, Mr. Chairman. - Thank you.

I am a Brooklynite, born and bred...

a first-generation American on my father's side...

barely second-generation on my mother's.

What has become of me could happen...

only in America.

Ruth: Neither of my parents had the means to attend college,

but both taught me to love learning...

to care about people...

and to work hard for whatever I wanted or believed in.

Ruth: My father was from Odessa

and during his growing up years,

Jews were no longer admitted to the Russian schools.

Education was terribly important.

My mother was loving but also very strict,

making sure I that I did my... homework, practice the piano,

didn't stay out jumping rope too long.

Iloved to do the things that boys did,

when I was growing up.

One of our favorite things was climbing garage roofs

from one roof to another, leaping...

leaping over.

Justice Ginsburg, we cannot call Ruth.

- Right. - We call her Kiki.

Ann Kittener: She was beautiful.

Big beautiful blue eyes, which you really can't see

very well behind her glasses, very soft brown hair.

She had this kind of quiet magnetism

even though she was not effusive.

Harryette Helsel: You always thought that she wasn 't listening

and that she didn't know what was going on

but she knew what was going on.

- She didn't do small talk. - No, no small talk.

And she didn't do girl chat and she didn't get on the phone

and talk with us about what happened on the weekend.

She's a deep thinker.

- She's an only child. - No...

She had a sister, I didn't know her sister.

- Her sister passed away. - Right.

Helsel: But she and her mom were very close,

very, very close.

Ruth: My mother died when I was 17.

| wish I could've had her... longen
