Murphy's Law of Speaking Up

"If you go ahead and say something, people will get mad and accuse you of being too bold/impudent/forward, expecting too much, or asking too many questions. But if you keep quiet, people will criticize you for being too wimpy to stand up for yourself."

As a child and teenager, people always griped at me for my speaking my mind, and so I finally got too timid to open my mouth. Nowadays, however, many folks --- including some of those very same criticizers from my youth --- tell me that I need to stick up for myself more and stop being such a wuss... can't win! Classic example of "Murphy's Law of Speaking Up", I guess.
