Famous quotes containing the word justice:

    Though Justice against Fate complain,
    And plead the antient Rights in vain:
    But those do hold or break
    As Men are strong or weak.
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

    Justice?—You get justice in the next world, in this world you have the law.
    William Gaddis (b. 1922)

    You are all alike, you respectable people. You can’t tell me the bursting strain of a ten-inch gun, which is a very simple matter; but you all think you can tell me the bursting strain of a man under temptation. You daren’t handle high explosives; but you’re all ready to handle honesty and truth and justice and the whole duty of man, and kill one another at that game. What a country! What a world!
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
