{“Injustice”}[5th February 1976]

[Redbook2:79][19760205:1415]{“Injustice”}[5th February 1976]

19760205.1415

'What is the most precious thing in the World? It seems to be the consciousness of not participating in injustice. Injustice is stronger than you are, it always was and always will be, but let it not be committed through you.'
Solzhenitsyn
The First Circle
Fontana Edn 1970, p.418
Translated by Michael Guybon.


Mind you, I don't necessarily agree with 'it always was and it always will be', but this provides a sufficient starting-point – and provides some of the real explanation for my decision to stop practising [law] at Christmas.
