“Bad men excuse their faults, good men will leave them.” -Ben Jonson

To leave behind one’s faults, is what the Bible calls repentance. That is to say, instead of making excuses for the things that we do wrong, we ought rather to take responsibility for them, and turn away from them.

“For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.” -John 3:20
