Even if their child is useless, parents will not find them shameful. But if you're an outstanding child, you don't have the right to find your parents shameful.

Seo Won

Not to be able to bear poverty is a shameful thing, but not to know how to chase it away by work is a more shameful thing yet.

Pericles

I think the biggest insult, the worst way you can offend a Mexican, is to insult their mother. A mother is the most sacred thing in life.

Emiliano Salinas

You take insult where none is intended, but if you will find insult where none is meant, then perhaps I should try harder to insult on purpose.

Laurell K. Hamilton

When you're young, you don't have much sense. You don't have any reasoning power. You don't have any ability to take a blow, an insult, a hurt in the right way. There is no way a child can do that. All a child can do is feel the pang of it, the heartache of it.

Vernon Howard

'Noah' is an insult to Bible-believing Christians, an insult to the character of Noah and, most of all, an insult to the God of the Bible. As a result, I believe Hollywood will have a much harder time in marketing future biblically-themed movies to Christians.

Ken Ham

An insult is mean or unkind. Milton Berle called me the Sultan of Insult, and I was called the King of Insult. But the guy that gave me the best title - and I use it to this day - was Johnny Carson. He called me Mr. Warmth.

Don Rickles

If a witch needs something, another witch will give it to her. If there is war to be fought, we don't consider cost one of the factors in deciding whether or not it is right to fight. Nor do we have any notion of honor. An insult to a bear is a deadly thing. To us...inconceivable. How could you insult a witch? What would it matter if you did?

Philip Pullman

It is better for a youth to earn living selling pakodas instead of being unemployed. Making pakodas is not shameful; what is shameful is comparing such a person with a beggar.

Amit Shah

Losing 7-1 at home is a shameful thing.

Hulk

Insult is powerful. Insult begets both rage and humor and often at the same time.

Suzanne Fields

To insult someone we call him 'bestial. For deliberate cruelty and nature, 'human' might be the greater insult.

Isaac Asimov

It is a shameful thing to be weary of inquiry when what we search for is excellent.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

With world health, every life you save is a wonderful thing, so it's not this question of whether you solve it or you don't. The chance of completely solving the problems has long odds. But really, the thing is that you get to save the first child, the second child, the third child. You can just feel good about that.

Bill Gates

It is not insult from another that causes you pain. It is the part of your mind that agrees with the insult. Agree only with the truth about you, and you are free.

Alan Cohen

It was a shameful thing that she had nothing of which to be ashamed.

Philip Jose Farmer
