Lady Justice

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lady Justice

Lady Justice (Iustitita, the Roman Goddess of Justice and sometimes, simply "Justice") is a personification of the moral force that underlies the legal system. Since the Renaissance, Justitia has frequently been depicted as a bare-breasted woman carrying a sword and scales, and sometimes wearing a blindfold. Her modern iconography, which frequently adorns courthouses and courtrooms, conflates the attributes of several goddesses who embodied Right Rule for Greeks and Romans, blended with Roman blindfolded Fortuna (Greek Tyche).

法律的尊严

什么是法律？法律就是秤和剑。也就是公平和惩罚。

没有公平，法律就没有公正性。没有惩罚，法律就没有尊严。

何谓法律的尊严？法律的尊严就是有法必依、执法必严、违法必究。没有尖齿利爪的狮子是没有尊严的。当法律没有尊严时，地痞流氓就成了社会的主宰。
