If we do not maintain Justice,
Justice will not maintain us.

than one innocent suffer.
?William Blackstone
Whenever a separation is made between liberty
and justice, neither, in my opinion, is safe.

The law isn't justice. It's a very imperfect
mechanism. If you press exactly the right
buttons and are also lucky, justice may
show up in the answer. A mechanism is all
the law was ever intended to be.
?Raymond Chandler

your fate into the hands of twelve people who
weren't smart enough to get out of jury duty.

There is no such thing as justice--
in or out of court.

before becomes more unsettled than ever.

A jury consists of twelve persons chosen
to decide who has the better lawyer.

Justice is incidental to law and order.
?J. Edgar Hoover
The penalty for laughing in a courtroom is six
months in jail; if it were not for this penalty,
the jury would never hear the evidence.
?H. L. Mencken
We have a criminal jury system which is superior
to any in the world; and its efficiency is only
marred by the difficulty of finding twelve men every
day who don't know anything and can't read.
?Mark Twain
When love is gone, there's always justice.
And when justice is gone, there's always force.
And when force is gone, there's always Mom.
Hi, Mom!
?Laurie Anderson
Military justice is to justice what
military music is to music.

Nobody can give you freedom.
Nobody can give you equality or justice or anything.
If you're a man, you take it.

I have always found that mercy bears
richer fruits than strict justice.

There will be no justice as long as man
will stand with a knife or with a gun and
destroy those who are weaker than he is.

Justice cannot be for one side
alone, but must be for both.
?Eleanor Roosevelt
