Guilt always hurries towards its complement, punishment; only there does its satisfaction lie.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Guilt is a supreme waste of time and energy.
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.
Where does guilt and punishment lie, and are we not more expressive over remorse or guilt when other people see the badness in us?
I don't do guilt. Whatever I do, I do it happily.
Guilt is anger directed at ourselves - at what we did or did not do. Resentment is anger directed at others - at what they did or did not do.
Guilt can prevent us from setting the boundaries that would be in our best interests, and in other people's best interests.
Guilt: the gift that keeps on giving.
Guilt has very quick ears to an accusation.
Remorse is virtue's root; its fair increase are fruits of innocence and blessedness.
I really believe guilt finds its way out of a person.
