About This Quote
Politics and justice seldom walk hand in hand. In this quote, the author is saying that politics and justice are not always on the same side. For example, in a country where a person has been charged with a crime, they may be found innocent but the politicians will still look to ruin them for whatever reason they have. It is often in a politician’s best interest to falsely accuse someone in order to get a high number of votes. This false accusation can ruin a poor person’s reputation and cause them trouble in their future relationship with others.
