A strong leader accepts blame and gives the credit. A weak leader gives blame and accepts the credit. Ninety-nine percent of failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses. He that excuses himself accuses himself. He that does amiss never lacks excuses. Our acts make or mar us, we are the children of our own deeds. A politician needs the ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month, and next year. And to have the ability afterwards to explain why it didn't happen. It is hard to imagine a more stupid or more dangerous way of making decisions than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who pay no price for being wrong. Winning needs no explanation, losing has no alibi. You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed. An excuse is worse and more terrible than a lie, for an excuse is a lie guarded.
