Let us not be ashamed to speak what we shame not to think.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If we are not ashamed to think it, we should not be ashamed to say it.
One of the misfortunes of our time is that in getting rid of false shame we have killed off so much real shame as well.
American culture is not about experiencing our shame, it's about denying it. It's been that way our whole history.
We are ashamed to seem evasive in the presence of a straightforward man, cowardly in the presence of a brave one, gross in the eyes of a refined one, and so on. We always imagine, and in imagining share, the judgments of the other mind.
I ain't a bit ashamed of anything.
Shame is the most powerful, master emotion. It's the fear that we're not good enough.
Live never to be ashamed if anything you say or do is published around the world, even if what is said is not true.
There is no shame like poor shame. It can make you warm and charming, bitter and resentful, all at once.
There is no shame is being ambivalent about almost everything in your life.
If we have anything kind to say, any tender sentiment to express, we feel a sense of shame.
