Dhammapada Verses 256 & 257: Forceful Dhammapada Part II

"Verse 256
Not by passing arbitrary judgments does a man become just; a wise man is he who investigates both right and wrong.

Verse 257
He who does not judge others arbitrarily, but passes judgment impartially according to the truth, that sagacious man is a guardian of law and is called just.
