There is the need for someone against which our characters can measure themselves. Without a ruler, you won't make the crooked straight.

Bear in mind that you commit a crime by injuring even a wicked brother.

He worships God who knows him.

Light troubles speak; the weighty are struck dumb.

If you would judge, understand.

Whom they have injured they also hate.

The worst evil of all is to leave the ranks of the living before one dies.
