If we return to the beginning, we must do so from the end; from the opposite. That being the case, if a “just person is just because of his knowledge…the unjust person [is] unjust for the opposite reason.”<ref>Plato, ''On Justice,'' 375 c.</ref> If that is factored in with experience, then knowledge becomes wisdom, therefore making it true that “the just person is just because of his wisdom…the unjust person is unjust, then, because of his ignorance.”<ref> Plato, ''On Justice, '' 375c.</ref> We have, it seems, been endowed with justice in the form of wisdom and injustice in the form of ignorance. Further, if people are ''unwillingly ignorant,'' they must therefore be unwillingly unjust. It can therefore be concluded that the just abolitionist acted with wisdom. Finally, it can be deduced that injustice stems from a lack of wisdom and those who continually commit unjust acts are those who are content with, albeit unaware of, their ignorance.
