“It is certain, in any case, that ignorance, allied with power, is the most ferocious enemy justice can have.”  —  James Baldwin

“And the horrible thing about all legal officials, even the best, about all judges, magistrates, barristers, detectives, and policemen, is not that they are wicked (some of them are good), not that they are stupid (some of them are quite intelligent), it is simply that they have got used to it.”  — G. K. Chesterton

“Power concedes nothing without demand. It never did and never will.”  —  Frederick Douglass
