Famous Fairness Quotes

Truth never damages a cause that is just. Mahatma Gandhi

Equality is not a concept. It’s not something we should be striving for. It’s a necessity. Equality is like gravity.

It is life out of balance, and that imbalance is sucking something out of the soul of every man and woman who’s confronted with it. We need equality. Kinda now. Joss Whedon

True peace required the presence of justice, not just the absence of conflict. N.K. Jemisin

We will never know peace and stability in the world without balance. And we will never know balance without justice for all. Yet, justice exists only where there is fairness and equality  when every man and country is treated and viewed equally. No country should be given power over another. In addition, no country should be granted privileges that are denied to others. No one country has the authority to decide which country will be embargoed, denied to protect itself, and will be favored based on the weight of their resources. Eliminate the hypocrisy. Suzy Kassem

Always seek justice, but love only mercy. To love justice and hate mercy is but a doorway to more injustice. Criss Jami

I know you kids are angry, because the world isn’t fair. Well, get over it, because it’s never going to be fair. The white boys have all the money and all the power and that’s the way it is. And they aren’t going to give it up to you or to me. And you can’t blame them for it because if you had it, you wouldn’t give it to them, either. But fighting each other isn’t going to fix anything. All it’s going to do is let everybody go on insisting that black and Hispanic kids are ignorant and violent. That’s perfect. It’s easy. If you’re ignorant and violent, people who don’t like you can kick you out of school or put you in jail. And it’s you own fault. LouAnne Johnson
