Although the legal and ordsprog
Although the legal and ethical definitions of right are the antithesis of each other, most writers use them as synonyms. They confuse power with goodness, and mistake law for justice.

We had legal and ethical obligations to do what we did, ... The prosecution's job is to do justice.

In order to get power and retain it, it is necessary to love power; but love of power is not connected with goodness but with qualities that are the opposite of goodness, such as pride, cunning and cruelty

It's not only a legal matter, it's also a moral and ethical matter that the country needs to clear up, ... What we're trying to do, while giving him all the rights to due process, is to finally bring him to justice.

Making a mistake is far different than, for example, obstructing justice. Abuse of power is far more serious than having an affair 30 years ago. I just urge the president of the United States to stop his allies from engaging in this kind of disgusting conduct.
