"La justice consiste non pas à être neutre entre le bien et le mal, mais à découvrir le bien et à le défendre partout où il se trouve contre le mal"
— Emiliano Zapata
Simplified Meaning:
Justice is not about staying in the middle and treating right and wrong as if they are the same. Instead, it is about figuring out what is truly right and making sure to support and protect it against what is wrong. Imagine if a teacher saw a student bullying another student. If the teacher just said, "I won't take sides," that wouldn't be fair. The just action would be to help the bullied student and stop the bully. In life, when we see someone doing something bad, like stealing or hurting others, true justice means standing up to them and helping those who are being harmed. Being fair means taking action to support what is good and correct.
