    “The law isn’t justice. It’s a very imperfect mechanism. If you press exactly the right buttons and are also lucky, justice may show up in the answer. A mechanism is all the law was ever intended to be.”
    —Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    “The good judge is not he who does hair-splitting justice to every allegation, but who, aiming at substantial justice, rules something intelligible of the guidance of suitors.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “We do justice coldly, injustice hotly.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
