"No man should be a judge in his own case. The only way to keep honest is to be willing to submit to external judgment, in principle. Again, as a practical matter there may be no trustworthy tribunal available, but at least one should strive for objectivity before an "idealized tribunal" of conscience."

I would certainly agree with the latter part of your statement. I applaud the effort of the gentleman who tried to blow up Hitler with the briefcase bomb. He decided that the State was not in the "Right", nor did the instruments of "justice" represent justice as he saw it. I forget his name, but I applaud the choice he made.
