"Justice. To be ever ready to admit that……" — Simone Weil

"Justice. To be ever ready to admit that another person is something quite different from what we read when he is there (or when we think about him). Or rather, to read in him that he is certainly something different, perhaps something completely different from what we read in him. Every being cries out silently to be read differently."

— Simone Weil
