In the court the old man told the Judge” they were just
comments, didn’t harm anyone.” The Judge told the old man, “Write all the
things you said about him on a piece of paper. Cut them up on the way home,
through the pieces of paper out. Comeback tomorrow to hear the sentence. Next
day the Judge told the old man, “Before receiving the sentence, you will have
to go out and gather all the pieces of paper that you threw out yesterday.”

The old man
said, “I can’t do that. The wind spread them and I won’t know where to find
them”. The Judge then replied, “The same way the simple comments may destroy
the honor of a man to such an extent that one is unable to fix it. If you can’t
speak well of someone, rather don’t say anything.
