Question
Do intentions justify actions? Would you, like Horace Danby, do something wrong if you thought your ends justified the means? Do you think that there are situations in which it is excusable to act less than honestly?

Answer

“Ends do not justify means”, this is a very old saying and has been tested many a times. Nobody should harm others for its own benefit. But this world doesn't function on idealism. There are many examples of people duping others for quick gains and earning easy money. But crime is crime even if done for something good. These acts should be deplored and dealt with severely.
