#Justice Quotes

“I don't know if I believe in God, but I know I believe in the devil. I have met him.”

“It's very important not to put pressure on a child. Make sure that she/he feels that whatever happens it's not the end of the world. If they cry after a loss that's normal, as adults also hate to lose. If they win a game you should make them feel very proud but make sure they know the next game will be another challenge.”
“This world and life of ours are filled with inequalities. The worst possible use to make of this fact, however, is to allow resentments to possess us. All of us have imagined limitations, but we have also the privilege of pushing them aside, and spreading our lives out! We never know any of our limitations until we put ourselves to the test. There are always "growing pains" working within us.”
“And ne'er shall the sons of Columbia be slaves, while the earth bears a plant, or the sea rolls its waves.”

“Herein lies the real value of education. Advanced education may or may not make men and women more efficient; but it enriches personality, increases the wealth of the mind, and hence brings happiness. It is the finest insurance against old age, against the growth of physical disability, against the lack and loss of animal delights. How essential it is, then, in youth to acquire some intellectual or artistic tastes, in order to furnish the mind, to be able to live inside a mind with attractive and interesting pictures on the walls.”

“Do not let your difficulties fill you with anxiety, after all it is only in the darkest nights that stars shine more brightly.”
“Symbols are to the mind what tools are to the hand--an extended application of its powers.”
