Sotomayor admitted that some of the Supreme Court rulings have brought her to tears.

Justice Sonia Sotomayor reflected on her time on the Supreme Court Friday and admitted that some of the high court’s decisions brought her to tears.

“There were days after the incident was announced that I would come to the office, close the door, and cry,” Sotomayor said at an event held in her honor at Harvard University on Friday.

“There was a time like that. And there will be more,” she added in her speech, according to The New York Times.

The Harvard event comes as the Supreme Court enters its final weeks in office. The court is expected to give opinions on several important cases, including whether the former president should be exempt from prosecution on charges that he worked to overturn the 2020 election and concerns about the use of abortion drugs such as mifepristone.

Sotomayor, the most liberal justice on the conservative Supreme Court, did not mention any specific cases in her speech.

She was appointed to the highest court in the United States by former President Obama in 2009. She later said she had differences of opinion with her fellow judges.

“Opposition to an idea does not make another human being evil or bad.” She noted that it was difficult.

She also acknowledged that the disagreement was emotional, but the Times noted that even as she expressed frustration, her tone was optimistic.

“There are moments where I feel deep, deep sadness,” Sotomayor said. “Yes, I also have moments when I feel hopeless.”

“We all do it. But we have to own it, we have to accept it, we have to shed our tears and then we have to wipe them and get up,” the judge added.
