After the chaos and carnage of September 11th, it is not enough to serve our enemies with legal papers.

Let my enemies devour each other.

In remembering the appalling suffering of war on both sides, we recognise how precious is the peace we have built in Europe since 1945.

There is no satisfaction in hanging a man who does not object to it.

I said I would never wear my gold again because it would be insensitive and disrespectful to all the people who died and lost everything in Katrina.

A friend is nothing but a known enemy.

A weak man is just by accident. A strong but non-violent man is unjust by accident.

To be perfectly just is an attribute of the divine nature; to be so to the utmost of our abilities, is the glory of man.

Truth is always in harmony with herself, and is not concerned chiefly to reveal the justice that may consist with wrong-doing.

We will make no distinction between the terrorists who committed these acts and those who harbour them.

Battle is an orgy of disorder.

Nothing can be more abhorrent to democracy than to imprison a person or keep him in prison because he is unpopular. This is really the test of civilization.

Justice and power must be brought together, so that whatever is just may be powerful, and whatever is powerful may be just.

No accurate thinker will judge another person by that which the other person’s enemies say about him.

Justice is an unassailable fortress, built on the brow of a mountain which cannot be overthrown by the violence of torrents, nor demolished by the force of armies.

If the Nuremberg laws were applied, then every post-war American president would have been hanged.

Terrorists are not following Islam. Killing people and blowing up people and dropping bombs in places and all this is not the way to spread the word of Islam. So people realize now that all Muslims are not terrorists.

In a country with millions of people and cars going everywhere, the enemy is going to get a car bomb out there once in awhile.

The course of this conflict is not known, yet its outcome is certain. Freedom and fear, justice and cruelty, have always been at war, and we know that God is not neutral between them.

Justice consists in doing no injury to men; decency in giving them no offense.

The suicide-bombing community is not absolutely 100 percent religious, but it is pretty nearly 100 percent religious.

The U.S. military is not war weary. Our military draws strength from confronting our enemies when clear policy objectives are set and we are fully resourced for the fight.

I submit that an individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and who willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment in order to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the highest respect for law.

Justice… is a kind of compact not to harm or be harmed.

I have found men to be more kind than I expected, and less just.

It is more dangerous that even a guilty person should be punished without the forms of law than that he should escape.

I was called a terrorist yesterday, but when I came out of jail, many people embraced me, including my enemies, and that is what I normally tell other people who say those who are struggling for liberation in their country are terrorists.

Terrorist attacks can shake the foundations of our biggest buildings, but they cannot touch the foundation of America. These acts shatter steel, but they cannot dent the steel of American resolve.

Wanton killing of innocent civilians is terrorism, not a war against terrorism.

I think what’s going on in Guantanamo Bay and other places is a disgrace to the U.S.A. I wouldn’t say it’s the cause of terrorism, but it has given impetus and excuses to potential terrorists to lash out at our country and justify their despicable acts.

There are two tragedies in life. One is to lose your heart’s desire. The other is to gain it.

Throwing out preclearance when it has worked and is continuing to work to stop discriminatory changes is like throwing away your umbrella in a rainstorm because you are not getting wet.

All virtue is summed up in dealing justly.

Have we not come to such an impasse in the modern world that we must love our enemies – or else? The chain reaction of evil – hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars – must be broken, or else we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation.

Never pray for justice, because you might get some.

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.

Spaniards were condemned for appeasing terrorism by voting for withdrawing troops from Iraq in the absence of U.N. authorization – that is, for taking a stand rather like that of 70 percent of Americans, who called for the U.N. to take the leading role in Iraq.

Of all that is good, sublimity is supreme. Succeeding is the coming together of all that is beautiful. Furtherance is the agreement of all that is just. Perseverance is the foundation of all actions.

If you’re too free, you’re like the way Hong Kong is now. It’s very chaotic.

Can anything be stupider than that a man has the right to kill me because he lives on the other side of a river and his ruler has a quarrel with mine, though I have not quarrelled with him?

America did not invent human rights. In a very real sense human rights invented America.

In India we only read about death, sickness, terrorism, crime.

I favor the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and it must be enforced at gunpoint if necessary.

Those who commit injustice bear the greatest burden.

Ought we not to ask the media to agree among themselves a voluntary code of conduct, under which they would not say or show anything which could assist the terrorists‘ morale or their cause while the hijack lasted.

Exclusion is never the way forward on our shared paths to freedom and justice.

In matters of truth and justice, there is no difference between large and small problems, for issues concerning the treatment of people are all the same.

No one who knew Diana will ever forget her. Millions of others who never met her, but felt they knew her, will remember her.

I think you should always bear in mind that entropy is not on your side.

Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.

Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves; and under the rule of a just God, cannot long retain it.

Free trade is not based on utility but on justice.

He who would be no slave must consent to have no slave. Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves and, under a just God, cannot long retain it.

One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.

Don’t create more enemies than you take out by some immoral act.

God’s angels often protect his servants from potential enemies.

I have never made but one prayer to God, a very short one: ‚O Lord make my enemies ridiculous.‘ And God granted it.

All religions try to benefit people, with the same basic message of the need for love and compassion, for justice and honesty, for contentment.

Everywhere that freedom stirs, let tyrants fear.

It was like being in the eye of a hurricane. You’d wake up in a concert and think, Wow, how did I get here?

Racism is real in this country.
