Famous quotes containing the word justice:

    I not deny
    The jury, passing on the prisoner’s life,
    May in the sworn twelve have a thief or two
    Guiltier than him they try. What’s open made to justice,
    That justice seizes.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    If we do not maintain Justice, Justice will not maintain us.
    Francis Bacon (1561–1626)

    Her wrongs are ... indissolubly linked with all undefended woe, all helpless suffering, and the plenitude of her “rights” will mean the final triumph of all right over might, the supremacy of the moral forces of reason and justice and love in the government of the nation. God hasten the day.
    Anna Julia Cooper (1859–1964)
