He who excuses himself, accuses himself.

Summary

This quote suggests that when a person constantly makes excuses to justify their actions or behavior, they are inadvertently implying guilt or wrongdoing. By pointing out the need for excuses, they effectively condemn themselves as guilty, rather than trying to defend their innocence. The quote implies that it is better to take ownership of one's actions and accept responsibility for any mistakes, instead of continuously making excuses that indirectly admit fault.
