Honor and shame from no condition rise; Act well your part, there all the honor lies.

Alexander Pope quote on Honor and shame

We live in an atmosphere of shame. We are ashamed of everything that is real about us; ashamed of ourselves, of our relatives, of our incomes, of our accents, of our opinions, of our experience, just as we are ashamed of our naked skins.

George Bernard Shaw – Shame

To disregard what the world thinks of us is not only arrogant but utterly shameless.

Cicero – Arrogance, Shame

Shame is like everything else; live with it for long enough and it becomes part of the furniture.

salman Rushdie – Shame
