The burden of guilt Nasreddin Hodja

Nasreddin Hodja and his wife came home one day to find the house burgled. Everything portable had been taken away. - It's all your fault, said his wife, for you should have made sure that the house was locked before we left. The Neighbor took up the chant: - You did not lock the windows, said one. - Why did you not expect this? said another. - The locks were faulty and you did not replace them, said a third. - Just a moment, said Hodja, surley I am not the only one to blame? - And who should we blame? they shouted. - What about the thieves? said Hodja. Are they totally innocent?
