[Quote No.17747] Need Area: Friends > General
"Justice is the great interest of man on earth. It is the ligament which holds civilized beings and civilized nations together. Wherever her temple stands, and so long as it is duly honored, there is a foundation for social security, general happiness, and the improvement and progress of our race. And whoever labors on this edifice with usefulness and distinction, whoever clears its foundations, strengthens its pillars, adorns its entablatures, or contributes to raise its august dome still higher in the skies, connects himself, in name, and fame, and character, with that which is and must be as durable as the frame of human society." - Daniel Webster

"A little more kindness and a little less creed,
A little more giving and a little less greed,
A little more smile and a little less frown,
A little less kicking a man when he's down;
A little more 'we' and a little less 'I',
A little more laugh and a little less cry;
A few more flowers on the pathway of life,
And fewer on graves at the end of the strife." - Unknown
