When strength is yoked with justice, where is a mightier pair than they?

The pen is mightier than the sword.

The joke is mightier than the sword.

Justice turns the scale, bringing to some learning through suffering.

The anvil of justice is planted firm, and fate who makes the sword does the forging in advance.

For there is no defense for a man who, in the excess of his wealth, has kicked the great altar of Justice out of sight.
