The judge is always right. What court system is better: adversarial or inquisitorial? It is‚ indeed‚ a very good question.

Appearances are unmistakably an ugly thing. They’re abused‚ judged‚ excessively used‚ and misplaced. Appearances are judged of cores‚ that’s why there is fashion but really appearances are a mask of the truth. We use them to hide our faults‚ our mistakes‚ imperfections‚ and our reality.
