A well-ordered society as one de­signed to advance the good of its members and effectively regulated by a public conception of justice. Thus it is a society in which everyone ac­cepts and knows that the others accept the same principles of justice, and the basic social institutions satisfy and are known to satisfy these princi­ples. - John Rawls

@cspcypher yeah, but then we introduce those chaotic humans to the mix, and it turns out society is not so amenable to being designed and well-ordered :)

I wouldn't say so much words of wisdom as words of someone who doesn't seem to have met humans yet.
