“O the shame of it, the humiliating shame of being condescended to by dolts”
“A man must not be without shame, for the shame of being without shame is shamelessness indeed.”
“There is no shame in not knowing something. The shame is in not being willing to learn.”
“Humiliation is about shame. Becoming humble is about being of use to others. It helps you get off the self-pity pot and stop wallowing around in your own crap.”
“The basis of shame is not some personal mistake of ours, but the ignominy, the humiliation we feel that we must be what we are without any choice in the matter, and that this humiliation is seen by everyone.”
“Suffering... is not just lots of pain but pain amplified by distinctly human emotions such as regret, self-pity, shame, humiliation, and dread.”
