Ab modis justis aut sordidis.
Edit:
As a result of fair (or just) or foul (or dirty) methods.
The machine translations are giving something like "By mediocre or repulsive power" Athene is correct in that her post is an established saying, and it may have filled the same niche, but it does not translate to "By fair means or foul". It comes out "By moral and immoral."

It means that anyone that uses this as an excuse for their actions have a Machiavellian attitude towards life. It is a scapegoat for their weakness, and their lack of courage. All is not fair in love and war. Love itself is fair, but war is the most unfair creature we live with.

"Per fas et nefas"
it's a standing expression.
And I do wish people would use the machine translations with care and more than one grain of salt.

I am sorry but I am not sure if this is right.
