Famous quotes containing the word justice:
“...I feel anxious for the fate of our monarchy, or democracy, or whatever is to take place.

Great difficulties may be surmounted by patience and perseverance.”

“Playing games with agreed upon rules helps children learn to live by rules, establish the delicate balance between competition and cooperation, between fair play and justice and exploitation and abuse of these for personal gain. It helps them learn to manage the warmth of winning and the hurt of losing; it helps them to believe that there will be another chance to win the next time.”
—James P. Comer (20th century)
“But since he had
The genius to be loved, why let him have
The justice to be honored in his grave.”
