A political conception just applies to the basic structure of a society, its institutions, constitutional essentials, matters of basic justice and property, and so on.

A society regulated by a public sense of justice is inherently stable.

The naturally advantaged are not to gain merely because they are more gifted, but only to cover the costs of training and education and for using their endowments in ways that help the less fortunate as well.

The fault of the utilitarian doctrine is that it mistakes impersonality for impartiality.

The sense of justice is continuous with the love of mankind.

The strength of the claims of formal justice, of obedience to system, clearly depend upon the substantive justice of institutions and the possibilities of their reform.

A just society is a society that if you knew everything about it, you'd be willing to enter it in a random place.
