Shame on me, shame on you,
Shame on them, shame on us,
Shame on me, shame on you,
Shame on them, shame on us,
So what the fuss.

 
Stevie Wonder
 

Each being is assigned only to himself, and the one who takes care to remain here has a solid foundation to walk on that will not shame him. If he then deliberates with himself about what he will, how far he wills, if by virtue of this deliberation he begins slowly and silently, his earnestness will not be put to shame. If, on the other hand, it pleases a man to wax serious in thought of what he will do for others, this demonstrates that basically he is a fool whose life is and remains a jest despite looks and gestures and powerful eloquence and careful theatrical postures, the existence of which means nothing except insofar as with the assistance of irony there can be a little amusement out of it.

 
Soren Aabye Kierkegaard

Dylan Moran

You broke the bonds and you
Loosed the chains,
Carried the cross
Of my shame.
Of my shame.
You know I believed it.
