"In A Theory of Justice, John Rawls asserts that justice is the first virtue of social institutions (1999: 3). Institutions must be improved or else abolished if they are unjust. Here we can interpret him as using the word ‘just’ to mean that they distribute rights, duties and the benefits of social cooperation in a fair way''.
"To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places...To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away and never, never, to forget." ~ Arundhati Roy
