Frederick Douglas would rather that people treat him with contempt than conforming to other's desires, thus betraying himself and his values.  This shows that he wants to be true to himself, and in a world where other people's opinions matter more than your own, that is a very bold statement. Some people have beliefs that are very valuable to them, yet they consider abandoning them for the sake of popularity or preventing ridicule.

Write an apology letter for not listening to ur mother<br><br> make it nice
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Dear mom,

I know that this is coming late.

I do not know how else to say this Mom but I am so sorry. I am not saying this because I feel bad that I was absolutely wrong, and you were right; I am saying it because even if I really didn’t want your advice, I could have at least done so without offending you or ignoring you.

I realize there is more wisdom in the advice you give me than I know, do forgive me.

I cannot even begin to imagine the hurt you must feel watching me do the very things you warned me of and falling victim to the very scenario you tried to prevent me from.

I love you now, forever and always.

Thank you.

The author wanted to see an accountant.
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

False, the man did not want to see an accountant, he wanted to see the manager.

" I had an idea that a person about to open an account must need to consult the manager. I went up to a wicket marked "Accountant." The accountant was a tall, cool [scoundrel]. ... My voice was sepulchral.  "Can I see the manager?" I said." Whew, thats long!

I hope I helped and that this is correct!
