OK, not an exact quote. But he made remarks to the effect that he didn't see a place for women in professions like law.

He said this while he was teaching law at the University of Chicago in 1986 - when he was appointed to the Supreme Court. This man should not have been involved in the higher education of women, much less on the Supreme Court.
