accusing the times is but excusing ourselves

People who seek to blame the times or conditions they line in are really trying to avoid taking the blame themselves: It strikes me that the prime minister needs to be reminded that those who accuse the times are but excusing themselves. The proverb was first recorded in 1732 by Thomas Fuller in Gnomologia.

Proverb expressing similar meanings: HE WHO EXCUSES HIMSELF ACCUSES HIMSELF
