Summary

This quote suggests that justice is a natural and inherent quality within humans. It argues that the moral sense is deeply embedded in our very being, just like our instinctual abilities of feeling, seeing, and hearing. This implies that our understanding of right and wrong, and the desire for fairness and justice, is not solely a product of societal conditioning, but rather an instinctive aspect of our nature.
