"There is no excuse for the sin you want to add" is an idiom from ancient Chinese, which means that when people want to harm someone, they can always find an excuse. This sentence first appeared in the chronicle "Zuo Chuan" written by Zuo Qiuming, a historian of the Lu State in the Spring and Autumn Period, and has a very far-reaching historical and cultural background.
Literally, "wanting to add a crime" means wanting to impose a crime on someone, while "no excuse" means not worrying about finding an excuse. This phrase is often used to describe those who have malicious intentions and will stop at nothing to find reasons and excuses to attack others in order to achieve their own ends.
In ancient society, this sentence had a deep sense of emotion and helplessness. Because in that era, the competition for power, status and wealth was extremely fierce, and many people did not hesitate to use various means to squeeze out and suppress their opponents for their own interests. Those who are in a vulnerable position are often targeted by these people.
Today, the phrase "there is no excuse for the sin you want to add" still has strong practical significance. In real life, we can still see many similar situations, some people attack others by any means for their own benefit, and this attack is often disguised by various seemingly reasonable excuses. Therefore, this quote reminds us to be wary of those with malicious intentions, and at the same time to keep a clear head and not to be easily deceived by the words of others.
