NAME:
A cat has captured a rooster. The cat wondered how to find any excuse to justify the fact that he was going to eat the rooster.
He then accused the rooster of causing people annoyance, as he crowed at night and wouldn't let people sleep.
[…]
The rooster defended itself by saying that it was crowing, yes, but for the benefit of men and so men could wake up early and go to work.
The cat replied:
- Although you have a good excuse, I can not go without dinner. – And so he swallowed the cock.
Moral of the story: Those who are bad characters will always find an excuse to legitimize their actions.
