“No legal system can maintain justice unless every participant magisters, prosecutors, Legumes, defendants, witnesses, all risks life itself in whatever dispute comes before the bar. Everything must be risked in the Court arena. If any element remains outside the contest and without personal risk, justice inevitably fails.”

― Frank Herbert, The Dosadi Experiment.
