Few things detract more from your credibility and the respect of your colleagues and peers than being called on the carpet to deflect accusations and defend an untruth.

In marriage there are no manners to keep up, and beneath the wildest accusations no real criticism. Each is familiar with that ancient child in the other who may erupt again. We are not ridiculous to ourselves. We are ageless. That is the luxury of the wedding ring.

Job plunges into a series of demands on and accusations of God which may be and indeed are epigrams of high intelligence, but are not noticeably patient.

As is well known, 'McCarthyism' was an alleged focus of political evil in the 1950s: Accusations of Communist taint, without factual basis; bogus lists of supposed Communists who never existed; failure in the end to produce even one provable Communist or Soviet agent, despite his myriad charges of subversion.

Every sexy joke of long ago, every flirtation, is being recalled by some women and revised and re-evaluated as sexual harassment. Frivolous accusations reduce, if not eliminate, not only communication between men and women but any kind of playfulness and banter... Where has the laughter gone?

I am ready to accept all accusations, allegations, anger - but I have to succeed.

There are abusive individuals whose worst little demons are greed, sloth,envy, gluttony, pride and wrath enslaved by their God which is money. They usually set their false assumptions, wrong judgments, gossips and lies forceful than the ones who hold the truth but what they missed out is that the victims of their aggressions, the targets of their wrong accusations and the recipients of their repetitive harassments carry what is truly essential and what lives longer, that is: truth and goodness, both of which shall always prevail against their vicious, evil manners.

"If you've ever suffered the accusations of people who objectified you as an emblem of darkness, it wasn't your fault. If you've ever been haunted by the opinions of your friends, it wasn't your fault. If they've ever assumed the worst of you, it wasn't your fault. If you've ever been judged by your own parents, it wasn't your fault. If you've ever been treated as an outcast, it wasn't your fault. If you've ever made a decision based on an opinion, it wasn't your fault. If you've ever been labeled, it wasn't your fault. If you've ever been stuck in the middle of a love triangle, it wasn't your fault. If you've ever been heartbroken, it wasn't your fault. If you've ever cried yourself to sleep, it wasn't your fault.

A writer reports on the universe. When he presents his credentials, the gates of heaven and hell are equally opened to him. He can hear the devil's defense and God's accusations.
