Whether we and our politicians know it or not, Nature is party to all our deals and decisions, and she has more votes, a longer memory, and a sterner sense of justice than we do.

I see no reason why the Shias should be debarred from having their voice in the elected bodies and governmental institutions in any matter which affect the Shias. We must so organise the Muslim League that justice is done to every sect and section inside it.
A lot can be debated about criminal justice and its delivery system.
I think a lot of moral debates are not over what is the basis of justice, but who gets a ticket to play in the game.
Justice consists in doing no injury to men; decency in giving them no offense.
In the literal sense, there has been no relevant evolution since the trek from Africa. But there has been substantial progress towards higher standards of rights, justice and freedom - along with all too many illustrations of how remote is the goal of a decent society.
Majorities and minorities cannot rightfully be taken at all into account in deciding questions of justice.
American decision-makers must understand how damaging a foreign policy that privileges order and profit over justice really is in the long term.
Martin Luther King dedicated his life to love and to justice between fellow human beings. He died in the cause of that effort.
It is my deepest belief that only by giving our lives do we find life. I am convinced that the truest act of courage, the strongest act of manliness is to sacrifice ourselves for others in a totally non-violent struggle for justice.

Black and brown communities are significantly and disproportionately impacted by deficiencies in our criminal justice system.
It is justice and respect that I want the world to dust off and put - without delay, and with tenderness - back on the head of the Palestinian child. It will be imperfect justice and respect because the injustice and disrespect have been so severe. But I believe we are right to try.
Foolish men imagine that because judgment for an evil thing is delayed, there is no justice; but only accident here below. Judgment for an evil thing is many times delayed some day or two, some century or two, but it is sure as life, it is sure as death.
Justice delayed is justice denied.
We pay a lot for our court service, but it's not enough. Courts are under-resourced, which leads to delayed justice - particularly in criminal courts.
It is ridiculous to say that Sacco and Vanzetti are being railroaded to the chair. The situation is much worse than that. This is a thing done cold-bloodedly and with deliberation. But care and deliberation do not guarantee justice.
People demand a lot of the justice system and they demand things that it can't deliver.
