--POPE.
JUSTICE.--Justice offers nothing but what may be accepted with honor;
and lays claim to nothing in return but what we ought not even to wish
to withhold.--WOMAN'S RIGHTS AND DUTIES.
Be just and fear not:
Let all the ends thou aim'st at be thy country's,
Thy God's, and truth's.
--SHAKESPEARE.
And heaven that every virtue bears in mind,
E'en to the ashes of the just, is kind.
--POPE.
He who is only just is cruel.--BYRON.
The sweet remembrance of the just
Shall flourish when he sleeps in dust.
--PARAPHRASE OF PSALM 112:6.
Justice is the insurance which we have on our lives and property, and
obedience is the premium which we pay for it.--WILLIAM PENN.
Heaven is above all yet; there sits a judge that no king can corrupt.
--SHAKESPEARE.
Justice discards party, friendship, kindred, and is always, therefore,
represented as blind.--ADDISON.
At present we can only reason of the divine justice from what we know
of justice in man. When we are in other scenes, we may have truer and
nobler ideas of it; but while we are in this life, we can only speak
from the volume that is laid open before us.--POPE.
In matters of equity between man and man, our Saviour has taught us to
put my neighbor in place of myself, and myself in place of my
neighbor.--DR. WATTS.
The books are balanced in heaven, not here.
