Don't blame the mirror if your face is faulty

पत्रं नैव यदा करीरविटपे दोषो वसन्तस्य किम्
नोलूकोऽप्यवलोकते यदि दिवा सूर्यस्य किं दूषणम् ।
धारा नैव पतन्ति चातकमुखे मेघस्य किं दूषणम्
यत्पूर्वं विधिना ललाटलिखितं तन्मार्जितुं कः क्षमः ॥

- चाणक्यनीतिः

- नीतिशतकम्

If there is not even a single leaf on the branches of Karir tree, how can the spring season be held responsible? Why should the Sun be blamed if owl cannot see during the day? Is it the fault of cloud if the drops of rain do not fall into the mouth of Chataka bird? Who is able to erase what's already written by fate on one's forehead?
(Chataka is a mythical bird which depends only on drops of rain to quench its thirst)

Don't blame the mirror if your face is faulty.
