Peace is more important than all justice; and peace was not made for the sake of justice, but justice for the sake of peace. Martin Luther quotes It is open to a war resister to judge between the combatants and wish success to the one who has justice on his side. By so judging he is more likely to bring peace between the two than by remaining a mere spectator.

She is to be wooed by slow advances. Benjamin Cardozo quotes If language is not correct, then what is said is not what is meant; if what is said is not what is meant, then what must be done remains undone; if this remains undone, morals and art will deteriorate; if justice goes astray, the people will stand about in helpless confusion. Hence there must be no arbitrariness in what is said. This matters above everything. Confucius quotes Justice and power must be brought together, so that whatever is just may be powerful, and whatever is powerful may be just.

Edmund Burke quotes Justice denied anywhere diminishes justice everywhere. Martin Luther King, Jr. quotes Rigid justice is the greatest injustice.
