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 honesty?

Yes, intentions do justify actions but if the intentions are not good or can harm people then they most certainly do not deserve justification.”Ends do not justify means”, is a very old and time-tested saying.

It is indeed true that intentions justify actions but we should not always fall a prey to them .it is equally important to judge the action before performing it .we must ponder upon the consequences
