Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg says it's lonely being the only woman on the U.S. Supreme Court.
The 76-year-old Ginsburg told law students at Ohio State University that she misses her former colleague, Sandra Day O'Connor, who retired in 2006.
Ginsburg says she loves her male colleagues but that women bring a life experience to the court that men can't.
Ginsburg had surgery in February for pancreatic cancer. She has said the operation successfully removed the cancer, but she didn't address the issue Friday.
