Fuuny Story - Once an old man spread rumours t

"Once an old man spread rumours that his neighbor was a thief. As a result, the young man was arrested.
.
Days later the young man was proven innocent. After being released he sued the old man for wrongly accusing him.
.
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. Tear it up on the way home and throw away the pieces. Tomorrow, come back 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, simple comments may destroy the honour of a man to such an extent that one is not able to fix it. If you can't speak well of someone, rather don't say anything."
.
*"Let's all be masters of our mouths, so that we won't be slaves of our words."*"
