If we are to keep democracy, there must be a commandment: Thou shalt not ration justice.

Thou shalt not ration justice.

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

We might come closer to balancing the Budget if all of us lived closer to the Commandments and the Golden Rule.

The bedrock of our democracy is the rule of law and that means we have to have an independent judiciary, judges who can make decisions independent of the political winds that are blowing.

Democracy not only requires equality but also an unshakable conviction in the value of each person, who is then equal.

We shouldn't waste any more time in making sure that democracy is properly rooted in our political life and the supremacy of the law becomes an integral part of our state's structure.

Unfortunately, the true force which propels our endless political disputes, our constant struggles for political advantage, is often not our burning concern for democracy, it is often of our dedication to the principle of the rule of law.

Justice is the first virtue of those who command, and stops the complaints of those who obey.

Equal justice means that there is not one set of rules for the powerful and another for everyone else.
