We all have secret lives. The life of excretion; the world of inappropriate sexual fantasies; our real hopes, our terror of death; our experience of shame; the world of pain; and our dreams. No one else knows these lives. Consciousness is solitary. Each person lives in that bubble universe that rests under the skull, alone (Shame Quotes)
Who among us has any conception of the dimensions of shame that will befall us and our children when one day the veil has fallen from our eyes and the most horrible of crimes... reach the light of day? (Shame Quotes)
She wept with shame for her lack of will and with fear for a love she couldn’t control (Shame Quotes)
Meditation did not relieve me of my anxiety so much as flesh it out. It took my anxious response to the world, about which I felt a lot of confusion and shame, and let me understand it more completely. Perhaps the best way to phrase it is to say that meditation showed me that the other side of anxiety is desire. They exist in relationship to each other, not independently (Shame Quotes)
Measure the hate you feel now, and the shame. That quantity is your capacity also to love and to feel joy and to have compassion (Shame Quotes)
A shame really, because putting the right book in the right kid’s hands is kind of like giving that kid superpowers (Shame Quotes)
The most paradoxical aspect of neurotic shame is that it is the core motivator of the superachieved and the underachieved, the star and the scapegoat, the righteous and the wretched, the powerful and the pathetic (Shame Quotes)
Watch out for each other. Love everyone and forgive everyone, including yourself. Forgive your anger. Forgive your guilt. Your shame. Your sadness. Embrace and open up your love, your joy, your truth, and most especially your heart (Shame Quotes)
I kept getting high to kill my shame at the fact that I kept getting high (Shame Quotes)
Fool witch once, shame on you. Fool witch twice, oozing sores and an eternal rash in private areas (Shame Quotes)
In the end there is nothing to be done but to state clearly what has been done, without shame or regret, and say: Here I am, and this is what I am. Now deal with me as you see fit. That is your right. Mine is to stand by the act, and pay the price. You do what you must do, and pay for it. So in the end all things are simple (Shame Quotes)
... the men of the Ulysses had no need to stand in shame... many had found, or were finding, that the point of no return was not necessarily the edge of the precipice: it could be the bottom of the valley, the beginning of the long climb up the far slope, and when a man had once begun that climb he never looked back to that other side (Shame Quotes)
A man’s character is like his house. If he tears boards off his house and burns them to keep himself warm and comfortable, his house soon becomes a ruin. If he tells lies to be able to do the things he shouldn’t do but wants to, his character will soon become a ruin. A man with a ruined character is a shame on the face of the earth (Shame Quotes)
Most of our difficulties, our hopes, and our worries are empty fantasies. Nothing has ever existed except this moment. That’s all there is. That’s all we are. Yet most human beings spend 50 to 90 percent or more of their time in their imagination, living in fantasy. We think about what has happened to us, what might have happened, how we feel about it, how we should be different, how others should be different, how it’s all a shame, and on and on; it’s all fantasy, all imagination. Memory is imagination. Every memory that we stick to devastates our life (Shame Quotes)
The future was uncertain, absolutely, and there were many hurdles, twists, and turns to come, but as long as I kept moving forward, one foot in front of the other, the voices of fear and shame, the messages from those who wanted me to believe that I wasn’t good enough, would be stilled (Shame Quotes)
Now that he’s gone, I feel like I’m a senior citizen who gave away her life savings over the phone. And this is the crux: I never in my life believed in someone as much as I believed in him. The shame is overwhelming (Shame Quotes)
If people try to judge you or shame you for doing safe, consensual things that make you happy, I can guarantee you they’re bad people (Shame Quotes)
There is no shame in strategic retreat if it lets you remain strong enough to go after the enemy later (Shame Quotes)
This was not guilt: guilt is what you feel when you have done something wrong. What I felt was shame: I was what was wrong (Shame Quotes)
Life is a series of embarrassing moments which leave you feeling alone in your confusion and shame (Shame Quotes)
I feel shame, not for the wrong things I have done, but for the right things that I have failed to do (Shame Quotes)
I thought there were moments to complain about your parents and moments to be grateful, and it was a shame to mix those moments up (Shame Quotes)
Love, the beauty of it, the joy of it and yes, even the pain of it, is the most incredible gift to give and to receive as a human being. And we deserve to experience love fully, equally, without shame and without compromise (Shame Quotes)
Art critic! Is that a profession? When I think we are stupid enough, we painters, to solicit those people’s compliments and to put ourselves into their hands! What shame! Should we even accept that they talk about our work? (Shame Quotes)
By bringing shame to a person, how could one expect to make him a better man? (Shame Quotes)

Courage has you say in a defiant spirit you can take everything from me, you could cut me deep, you could render me in shame but you will never ever stop me from loving those who mock me, from loving those that hate me, from loving those who don’t forgive me, from loving the cynics, from loving the darkness so much that I myself through my small acts of consistent unyielding love may bring on the light (Shame Quotes)
A drunkard is the annoyance of modesty, the trouble of civility, the spoil of wealth, the distraction of reason. He is the brewer’s agent, the tavern and alehouse benefactor, the beggar’s companion, the constable’s trouble, his wife’s woe, his children’s sorrow, his neighbours scoff, his own shame (Shame Quotes)
What is this true meditation? It is to make everything: coughing, swallowing, waving the arms, motion, stillness, words, action, the evil and the good, prosperity and shame, gain and loss, right and wrong, into one single koan (Shame Quotes)
To live without experiencing some shame and blushes of admiration would surely be a wretched life (Shame Quotes)
