"A variant attributed to Edith Wharton, is:

Never apologize, never explain: your friends don't need it, and your enemies won't believe you anyway."

Never waste time with insincere apologies or explanations that offer smoke and mirror entertainment and have a million holes in them: you will lose friends and fuel the animus of your enemies.
