Famous quotes containing the word justice:

    The hour when you say, “What does my justice matter? I do not see that I am embers and coals. But the just are embers and coals!”
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    ...I feel anxious for the fate of our monarchy, or democracy, or whatever is to take place. I soon get lost in a labyrinth of perplexities; but, whatever occurs, may justice and righteousness be the stability of our times, and order arise out of confusion. Great difficulties may be surmounted by patience and perseverance.
    Abigail Adams (1744–1818)

    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)
