Imperial Proverbs and Thoughts for the Day

ON JUSTICE

The Emperor knows, the Emperor is watching.

Innocence proves nothing.

An Eye for an Eye.

Be just and fear naught.

Ruthlessness is the kindness of the wise.

That was then, this is now.

Beginning reform is beginning revolution.

There is no such thing as innocence, only degrees of guilt.

To be just, our law must be cruel.

Praise the Emperor! The Emperor's word is the Law, and the Arbites are the voice by which that word is spoken!

To stand upon the bedrock of the Law is our great duty. To presume to stand above it is our worst heresy.

No servant of the Emperor dies unavenged. No enemy of the Emperor escapes unpunished!
