Answer:

the nature of people to blame others for their own mistakes or shortcomings

Explanation:

You can see how the author makes fun of it and points out this behavior in this part of the excerpt:

<em>"[...] I knew men well enough to know that when they find they've given a tramp a million-pound bill when they thought it was a one-pounder, they are in a frantic rage against him instead of quarreling with their own near-sightedness[...]"</em>

<em />

They would not blame themselves for giving away that money. They'd not even think about how they were the ones to commit such mistake. They'd blame the one that had the note because otherwise, it'd be their fault.

sukhopar [10]
I believe you are referring to Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin. One of Tom's last act is to forgive Quimbo and Sambo. Quimbo and Sambo were ordered by Legree to beat up Tom mercilessly. However, they realize their wrongdoing and decide to heal Tom's wound. Tom then tells them they can still be saved by Jesus' grace.

1. Creon says of Antigone:
Vlad [161]
That is true, because she was the only one to understand the importance of divine laws as opposed to Creon's civil laws. He forbade her to give her brother a proper burial because he was a traitor, but she understood that it needed to be done so that he could be allowed to go to heaven, perhaps. The other people were afraid of Creon, and didn't want to interfere with his laws.
