Cui licitus est finis, etiam licent media

The Latin phrase “cui licitus est finis, etiam licent media” can be translated into English as “To whom the end is lawful, the means are also lawful.”

This proverb conveys the idea that if a person has the authority or permission to achieve a particular objective, then the methods or means required to accomplish that goal are also considered legitimate or lawful. It means that if someone is allowed to do something, then all the necessary steps or actions required to achieve it are also allowed.
