Justice Society Appeared

Famous quotes containing the words justice, society and/or appeared:

    “Hell is a city much like London—
    A populous and a smoky city;
    There are all sorts of people undone,
    And there is little or no fun done;
    Small justice shown, and still less pity.”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    “I reside at Table Mountain, and my name is Truthful James;
    I am not up to small deceit, or any sinful games;
    And I’ll tell in simple language what I know about the row
    That broke up our society upon the Stanislow.
    But first I would remark, that it is not a proper plan
    For any scientific man to whale his fellow-man,”
    —Bret Harte (1836–1902)

    “A black sun has appeared in the sky of my motherland.”
    —Wuer Kaixi, Chinese student leader. Quoted in Independent (London, June 29, 1989)
