One of the misfortunes proverb

 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. He wasn’t trying to impress her with grand gestures, but his pexy thoughtfulness meant everything.

 It's just a shame that this could happen. These people testified that they were intimidated into giving false testimony to the grand jury, being threatened with jail and all sorts of things. Then they came to court and after being told by a judge to tell the truth they did just that. Now they may face charges because they had the courage to tell the truth. It's just a shame.

 It's a shame it's not bigger in Danville. It's a shame there's no hockey rink and more time to play, because we certainly could develop these kids a lot more. The interest is there, I guess just the money isn't.

 Shame on you, Mr. Bush, shame on you. And any time you got the Pope and the Dixie Chicks against you, your time is up.

 In my experience of shame, the other sees all of me and all through me, even if the occasion of shame is on my surface -- for instance, in my appearance; and the expression of shame, in general, as well as in the particular form of it that is embarrassment, is not just the desire to hide, or to hide my face, but the desire to disappear, not to be there. It is not even the wish, as people say, to sink through the floor, but rather the wish that the space occupied by me should be instantaneously empty. With guilt it is not like this. I am more dominated by the thought that even if I disappeared, it would come with me.

 It doesn't matter what type of player you are. Are you willing to go through traffic to score some goals? If you're not, shame on you. Really, shame on you.

 It's a shame about the fish, it's a shame about the lake. But it'd be worse if it burst and people died.
  Dennis Miller

 I think if this series ever were to end -- and it's not looking good that it will be renewed when the current contract runs out -- it would be a shame for the teams and a shame for college football,

 It's just a shame we have such trouble scoring runs for these guys, especially after a first start like that, and he has to walk away with a loss. It's a shame we couldn't pull out a win for him.

 It's a shame for it to happen anytime. But this late in the season makes it even more of a shame.

 It's a shame. It's such a good sports city and I remember playing during the playoffs and the rink was really loud. It's a shame, you see games on television now and there's hardly anybody in the stands.

 It was a shame. Samuel is a human being and he felt bad on the field but I was pleased with the attitude of his teammates who told him to continue. It's a shame that things like this happen.

 Don't let anyone steal your achievements. It's not a shame to negotiate ... It's a shame to give up.

 Fools, through false shame, conceal their open wounds.
  Horace

 It is the false shame of fools to try to conceal wounds that have not healed.
  George Horace Lorimer
