How to use unjust in a sentence?

  1. Nadine Gordimer:

    In a democracy -- even if it is a so-called democracy like our white-?litist one -- the greatest veneration one can show the rule of law is to keep a watch on it, and to reserve the right to judge unjust laws and the subversion of the function of the law by the power of the state. That vigilance is the most important proof of respect for the law.

  2. Steve Cohen:

    He comes from money. He is White. He’s being sentenced as an adult, appropriately. And for an adult to get away with these crimes without doing jail time is unjust.

  3. Matthew Stover:

    Jedi do not fight for peace. That's only a slogan, and is as misleading as slogans always are. Jedi fight for civilization, because only civilization creates peace. We fight for justice because justice is the fundamental bedrock of civilization: an unjust civilization is built upon sand. It does not long survive a storm.

  4. Professor Hadar Aviram:

    You are not under any obligation to defend things that are morally unjust, if you truly believe that they're morally unjust and you have an opportunity to take a stand, I think it's an imperative to do so.

  5. Thomas Carlyle:

    If what you have done is unjust, you have not succeeded.
