For instance, Jesus chose love. The only one who was innocent accepted punsihment for every guilty one.

1 Corinthians 13:13
13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
In my experience, life on this earth is rarely fair. We have to depend on love! : )

Oh man, great question....
I suppose it would hinge upon definition, once again... :)
Certainly, when it comes to my personal life, Love is what is greater - with love, we can conquer our inequalities between the two of us. However, in the real world, Love really isnt worth squat - and only fairness is great. Can Love feed the hungry? Can Love provide medical care to those that cannot afford it? Can Love provide an education for the underpriveledged? Can Love provide equal rights to homosexuals?
the answer to all of those question is a resounding NO. However, Fairness WOULD feed the hungry, provide medical care for all, provide education for all, and provide equal rights to all.

LOVEl It conquers ALL things --- 1 Corinthians 13: 1 - 13
"If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels but do not have love, I have become a sounding [piece of] brass or a clashing cymbal. And if I have the gift of prophesying and am acquainted with all the sacred secrets and all knowledge, and if I have all the faith so as to transplant mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. And if I give all my belongings to feed others, and if I hand over my body, that I may boast, but do not have love, I am not profited at all.
Love is long-suffering and kind. Love is not jealous, it does not brag, does not get puffed up, does not behave indecently, does not look for its own interests, does not become provoked. It does not keep account of the injury. It does not rejoice over unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never fails. But whether there are [gifts of] prophesying, they will be done away with; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will be done away with. For we have partial knowledge and we prophesy partially; but when that which is complete arrives, that which is partial will be done away with.
When I was a babe, I used to speak as a babe, to think as a babe, to reason as a babe; but now that I have become a man, I have done away with the [traits] of a babe. For at present we see in hazy outline by means of a metal mirror, but then it will be face to face. At present I know partially, but then I shall know accurately even as I am accurately known. Now, however, there remain faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love".

Fairness is a product of unconditional love, therefore love is Greater.

Fairness would be a part of love.

I would say Love as fairness would become a byproduct.

Fairness, if you're talking along the lines of justice.
