People want to work with somebody who feels shame, who worries about the perceptions of others. Dishonesty is something we don't like in others.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Dishonesty, lack of integrity catches up with you.
I think it's easy for people to say, 'Because you do this, you must be this kind of person, vain or uptight or mean to people.' People have a sense of who you may be because of the job you do. That's unfair judgment.
I don't want to lie. I dislike dishonesty. And I work in Hollywood, a town and a business that relies on a lot of falsehoods with people hiding behind different facades. I don't want to be a part of that.
There is nothing in the world more shameful than establishing one's self on lies and fables.
Dishonesty of any kind will create a blemish.
Dishonesty is all about the small acts we can take and then think, 'No, this not real cheating.' So if you think that the main mechanism is rationalization, then what you come up with, and that's what we find, is that we're basically trying to balance feeling good about ourselves.
Liars share with those they deceive the desire not to be deceived.
Guilt is feeling bad about what you have done; shame is feeling bad about who you are - all it is, is muddling up things you have done with who you are.
There is no shame like poor shame. It can make you warm and charming, bitter and resentful, all at once.
Honesty is for the most part less profitable than dishonesty.
