two wrongs don't make a right na zlo se ne uzvraća zlom Explanation: said to emphasize that it is not acceptable to do something bad to someone just because they did something bad to you first also: "In rhetoric and ethics, two wrongs make a right and two wrongs don't make a right are phrases that denote philosophical norms. "Two wrongs make a right" is a fallacy of relevance, in which an allegation of wrongdoing is countered with a similar allegation. Its antithesis, "two wrongs don't make a right", is a proverb used to rebuke or renounce wrongful conduct as a response to another's transgression." |
