Explain this quotation: Judge Danforth – "But witchcraft is ipso facto, on its face and by its nature, an invisible crime, is it

not? Therefore, who may possibly be witness to it? The witch and the victim. None other. Now we cannot hope the witch will accuse herself; granted? Therefore, we must rely upon her victims - and they do testify, the children certainly do testify. As for the witches, none will deny that we are most eager for all their confessions."​

Answer:

The victims must be believed.

Explanation:

Judge Danforth is saying that because witchcraft is an invisible crime, it can only be brought to trial based on verbal testimonies, and because a witch will not testify against herself, the victims' testimonies must be believed. Danforth also assumes that the witches will confess to their crimes after the victims testify. (In reference to <em>The </em><em>Crucible</em>).

Write a story on the day i had a chance to act
PtichkaEL [24]
I have a brief story to tell of a day which I always remember and cherish during which I found out something very important about myself and my values in life. It happened when I was coming home from high school on my fisherman friends boat (we had to take a bus, then take a boat and then walk to get home). I was also a fisherman's son who also had worked on the fishing boat of my dad. But whereas my friend was in the general non-university program, I was in the university entrance program so I had aspirations for higher education. As we approached the float of my friend's house, I put down my briefcase with all my homework and jumped down onto the float with a line to help tie it up. Then when I looked up, my friend handed me my briefcase. This felt so good, that I was not forgetting my humble background and not acting superior but being what I was- a fisherman's son basically and primarily and secondarily a potential university student and that my friend appreciated my action.
