"
‘I'm interested in truth,’ the sheriff said.
‘So
am I,’ Uncle Gavin said. ‘It's so
rare. But I am more interested in
justice and human beings.’
‘Ain't
truth and justice the same thing?’ the sheriff said.
‘Since
when?’ Uncle Gavin said. ‘In my time I have seen truth that was
anything under the sun but just, and I have seen justice using tools and
instruments I wouldn't want to touch with a ten-foot fence rail.’" ―
William
Faulkner, “An Error in Chemistry," in Knight's Gambit (1949)
