A Quote by Carl Jung

Shame is a soul eating emotion. — © Carl Jung
Shame is a soul eating emotion.
No emotion, merely as an emotion, is a sin, because we cannot directly control the arising of an emotion in our soul.
I'm not sure if the shame/guilt distinction resonates for me. I just know that shame is a debilitating emotion that is perpetuated by Church and State.
Shame was an emotion he had abandoned years earlier. Addicts know no shame. You disgrace yourself so many times you become immune to it.
Healthy shame is an emotion that teaches us about our limits. Like all emotions, shame moves us to get our basic needs met.
We don't want emotion handed to us - that's not emotion. You have to build and come from the reader's soul.
We live in a world where most people still subscribe to the belief that shame is a good tool for keeping people in line. Not only is this wrong, but it’s dangerous. Shame is highly correlated with addiction, violence, aggression, depression, eating disorders, and bullying.
Shame has its place. Shame is what you do to a kid to stop them running on the road. And then you take the shame away, and immediately, they're back in the fold. You should never soak anybody in shame. It's the prolonged existence of shame that then flips out into destructive rage. We can't exist in that. It's like treacle.
Shame is such an intense emotion. It just can drive you.
It was the emotion I hated the most of all emotions, shame.
I know, in my soul, that to eat a creature who is raised to be eaten, and who never has a chance to be a real being, is unhealthy. It's like...you're just eating misery. You're eating a bitter life.
I'm not ashamed of anything I've done. Shame is a useless emotion.
I think that shame is a universal, paralyzing, painful emotion.
laughter, that distinctively human emotion, laughter which springs from trust in the other, from willingness to put oneself momentarily in the other's place, even at one's own expense, is the special emotional basis of democratic procedures, just as pride is the emotion of an aristocracy, shame of a crowd that rules, and fear of a police state.
Shame is the most powerful, master emotion. It's the fear that we're not good enough.
Emotion is always multiplied in the art of a person who doesn't really show much emotion. It once expanded deep within his hidden soul, and following the downplay his audience is blown away.
Shame is an unhappy emotion invented by pietists in order to exploit the human race.
