"正义必须始终质疑自己，正如社会只能通过对自身及其机构的工作而存在一样。"
— Michel Foucault

Simplified Meaning:
Justice needs to constantly re-examine itself to stay fair, just like a society has to work on improving itself and its rules to thrive. Think about a town with laws that were made many years ago. Over time, people notice that some of these laws are not treating everyone equally. To make things right, they start discussing and updating these laws to match the current needs and values of the community. This process helps to ensure that everyone gets fair treatment and the society becomes better. Everyone in the town can be happier and live together more peacefully because they keep checking and fixing what's broken. This is how both justice and society keep improving by always looking at themselves critically and making necessary changes.
