Injustice


 Injustice constitutes the essence of social life.

 Injustice is relatively easy to bear; what stings is justice
  Henry Louis Mencken

 Injustice never rules forever
  Seneca

 INJUSTICE, n. A burden which of all those that we load upon others and carry ourselves is lightest in the hands and heaviest upon the back.
  Ambrose Bierce

 It is a great injustice to persecute homosexuality as a crime, and cruelty too
  Sigmund Freud

 It is a tragic mix-up when the United States spends $500,000 for every enemy soldier killed, and only $53 annually on the victims of poverty.

 It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope.
  Robert Francis Kennedy

 Not to wax nostalgic about the 1970’s, but back then people got upset when they saw injustice. They got tired of seeing our air, land and water polluted. They were shocked when the Cuyahoga River in Ohio was polluted so badly it caught fire. And on one great day 20 million Americans marched all across this land. Politicians had no choice but to take notice.
  Senator John Kerry

 Of all injustice, that is the greatest which goes under the name of law; and of all sorts of tyranny the forcing of the letter of the law against the equity, is the most insupportable

 Of all injustice, that is the greatest which goes under the name of law; and of all sorts of tyranny the forcing of the letter of the law against the equity, is the most insupportable

 Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them, and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.
  Frederick Douglass

 Since when do we have to agree with people to defend them from injustice?
  Lillian Hellman

 The strictest law sometimes becomes the severest injustice.
  Benjamin Franklin
