Justice is the first virtue of those who command, and stops

Summary

This quote suggests that those in positions of power, or those who command, should prioritize justice above all else. Justice ensures fairness and equality, which ultimately pacifies any objections or grievances from those who are being commanded or obliged to follow. By upholding justice, the rulers maintain order, trust, and harmony among those who are under their authority, creating a more balanced and stable society.
