"Even the deities can’t give a perfect answer to this question, so of course we won’t be able to, no matter how hard we try! Yes, it’s impossible! Anyone can talk on and on about justice. Instead of searching for the ‘real’ justice among the endless constellation of possible definitions, let’s beat the villains who act under the banner of false justice! When the evil of falsehood is gone, harmony and order will be born. The people will be so happy! I’m quite sure that is what justice means for us as members of Astraea Familia! Justice is not something to carry on our shoulders. It is something that will crush us one day. It is not something to boast about. That’s like pushing ill will on people! Justice is something to hide!"

"You’re telling me that the minority should be ignored in the name of the bigger picture? Is that the justice Lady Astrea wants?! What good is peace at the cost of such a sacrifice?"
— Ryuu Lion to Kaguya Gojouno
"You think we can save everyone? I don’t think so, idiot. The justice you speak of is no more than a convenient ideal. There comes a day for every person when they must make a choice. You and I, as well. I think you need to learn a little more about the real world."
— Kaguya Gojouno to Ryuu Lion
"I… can’t accept it. Even if I’m an idiot and Kaguya is right, I just can’t swallow the idea of expecting to make sacrifices from the start… It’s no different from giving in to Evilus. We might as well proclaim our own powerlessness and forget about working for justice!”
— Ryuu Lion to Alise Lovell
"No, Kaguya. It’s like I said before. There are as many kinds of justice as there are people in the world. There is no correct definition of justice. But I know Lion will make the right choices."
— Alise Lovell
“For me right now, justice is… returning alive with you.”
— Bell Cranel to Ryuu Lion when trapped on Floor 37
