Apparently, death is not martyrdom when it does not demand a price.

"Keep quiet and stay safe" is not innocent advice.

And you read the novel Freedom or Death, but you still do not liberate yourself, and you do not die.

How innocent we were to think the law is a vessel for rights and justice! The law here is a vessel for what the ruler wants, or a suit that he orders to his own measure.

You realize once again that justice is a hope that resembles an illusion if it is not supported by power and that power transforms the illusion into a reality,

Justice is an exhausted alphabet because it is not possible for the crime to awaken the law.
