Peonage, Anti-Lynch Bill, poll tax, these are our issues. They are the most controversial issues in American life, and some of us will have to die for them! Yes, we want to join with the CIO! We cannot stop for controversy!” And there in the faces of my people I saw strength. There with the...

I don’t know about you, but I only have one life, and I don’t want to spend it in a sewer of injustice.

Every Muslim is obligated by the Holy Quran to defend his fellow Muslims who are victims of oppression and injustice.Do your effort to help wherever you are and whatever you can do.The Holy Quran decrees as well that we must never support the UNJUST, whether that person is a Muslim or not.

Teach love and compassion to all. Go back to the proper understanding of every verse. Teach every young Muslim the ability to understand the meaning of friendship that has no borders while at the same time teach them to recognize who are the real UNJUST who do not deserve to be a friend.

I’m really very sorry for you all, but it’s an unjust world, and virtue is triumphant only in theatrical performances.

When we think of racism we think of Governor Wallace of Alabama blocking the schoolhouse door; we think of water hoses, lynchings, racial epithets, and “whites only” signs. These images make it easy to forget that many wonderful, goodhearted white people who were generous to others, respectful of their neighbors, and even kind to their...

When now we turn and look five miles above, there on the edge of town are five houses of prostitutes,—two of blacks and three of whites; and in one of the houses of the whites a worthless black boy was harbored too openly two years ago; so he was hanged for rape. And here, too,...

And the priests looked down into the pit of injustice and they turned their faces away and said, ‘Our kingdom is not as the kingdom of this world. Our life on earth is but a pilgrimage. The soul lives on humility and patience,’ at the same time screwing the poor from their last centime. They...

Money can buy the necessary police order. Justice is sold to the highest bidder

The fact is, the primary way that Ottawa and Washington deal with Native people is to ignore us. They know that the court system favors the powerful and the wealthy and the influential, and that, if we buy into the notion of an impartial justice system, tribes and bands can be forced through a long,...

Man cannot be freed by the same injustice that enslaved it.

Injustice upon earth renders the justice of of heaven impossible.

O all you host of heaven! O earth! What else?And shall I couple Hell?

Where justice if negotiable, filthiness becomes delectable

Cries for justice are often the bitter laments of the vengeful.

Each time a person stands for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, they send a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression...

The rights of man are poor things beside the eyes of hungry children. Their hurts are keener than the soreness of injustice.

I think that for those who have suffered unjustly, justice alone is not enough. They want the guilty to suffer unjustly too. Only this will they understand as justice.

Being a copper I like to see the law win. I’d like to see the flashy well-dressed mugs like Eddie Mars spoiling their manicures in the rock quarry at Folsom, alongside of the poor little slum-bred guys that got knocked over on their first caper amd never had a break since. That’s what I’d like....

It’s no accident that the countries that have enjoyed an economic take off have been those that educated girls and then gave them the autonomy to move to the cities to find work

This war ends, then so do the taxpayer-funded contracts, the drumbeats in the media, the nice Combatant faces, and the patriotic cause to lull the civilians and shame the dissenters. The other thing that comes to an end is all the justification for why this country’s run the way it is. People will wonder why...

Some things you must always be unable to bear. Some things you must never stop refusing to bear. Injustice and outrage and dishonor and shame. No matter how young you are or how old you have got. Not for kudos and not for cash: your picture in the paper nor money in the back either....

I believe one of the best ways to achieve justice is to expose injustice.

Have you ever noticed how good things go to those who hate?

No matter what chains are broken, slavery is a condition of the heart.

It is about doing the most good with the only two hands I can control.

Thy designs are a bottomless pit. How can I descend into this pit to examine it? Thou lookest thousands of years into the future and then Thou judgest. What today seems an injustice to man’s minute brain becomes, thousands of years hence, the mother of man’s salvation. If what today we term injustice did not...

[W]hen men have both done and suffered injustice and have had experience of both, not being able to avoid the one and obtain the other, they think that they had better agree among themselves to have neither; hence there arise laws and mutual covenants; and that which is ordained by law is termed by them...

Your democratically elected governments continuously perpetuate injustice against my people all over the world, and your support of them makes you directly responsible, just as I am directly responsible for protecting and avenging my Muslim brothers and sisters.

Whatever criticism we may have for Jonah, at least it can be said that Jonah was consistent. This legalistic, over-judgmental, young prophet will consistently proscribe the most severe form of punishment for the guilty–even when the guilty party is himself. The young Jonah hijacks written Torah to condemn everyone–even himself.

Where there is no property there is no injustice.

It was a big injustice. We’ve missed a number of chances and the goalkeeper’s made some blinding saves.

Well, there was a sort of bastard justice in his view of the case, and so I dropped the matter. When you can’t cure a disaster by argument, what is the use to argue?

I understand true life doesn’t happen when I constantly gaze backwards, mulling over all the injustices others have done or I have done to others.

Their voices meld into a cloudy rumble of their own, and I ponder Mira’s and Aidan’s secrets and imagine the injustice that threads through other lives, injustice that has no face because it is hidden away in a dark, shameful place, hidden for years in hopes of making it untrue.

Justice has a right to protest against injustice.

Persons appear to us according to the light we throw upon them from our own minds. -Laura Ingalls Wilder, author (1867-1957)

To me, the poor are like Bonsai trees. When you plant the best seed of the tallest tree in a six-inch deep flower pot, you get a perfect replica of the tallest tree, but it is only inches tall. There is nothing wrong with the seed you planted; only the soil-base you provided was inadequate.Poor...

The struggle against injustice is just another kind of injustice.

Unless death is made a lesson for the living, the life lived is wasted.Why should life come into existence only to be destroyed? One dies and another is born—for what? A few miserable hours of life—then oblivion!With this recognition of the finality of death, no one should willingly withhold acts that would bring benefits, joy...

[W]hen someone finds himself quite unjustly attacked and hated on all sides, there is no need for such a person to feel dismayed by misfortune. See how Fortune, who has harmed many a one, is so inconstant, for God, Who opposes all wrong deeds, raises up those in whom hope dwells.

The courtroom is one instance of the fact that while our society may be liberal and democratic in some large and vague sense, its moving parts, its smaller chambers–its classrooms, its workplaces, its corporate boardrooms, its jails, its military barracks–are flagrantly undemocratic, dominated by one commanding person or a tiny elite of power.

They had no previous connection whatever with Connemara; but they saw connections where others who should have seen them simply looked the other way.

Police are inevitably corrupted. … Police always observe that criminals prosper. It takes a pretty dull policeman to miss the fact that the position of authority is the most prosperous criminal position available.

We not only do not believe that man is punished for his ‘sins,’ but emphatically state that there is no such thing as sin. There are wrongs and injustices, but no sin. Sin, like purgatory and hell, was invented by priests, first to frighten, and then to rob the living.We do not fear these myths...

Every nation that carries in its bosom great and unredressed injustice has in it the elements of this last convulsion.

Laws are spider webs through which the big flies pass and the little ones get caught.
