Crimes of which a people is ashamed constitute its real history. The same is true of man.
Every decent man is ashamed of the government he lives under.
Women will not be free until we can speak our minds and our hearts without having to worry that men will crucify us, women will crucify us, the press will crucify us, or our children will be ashamed. . . Women are still in emotional bondage as long as we feel we have to make a choice between being heard and being loved.

When you go into mama-bear mode and have no choice but to just go with the flow, that's kind of when I realized. . . it put life into perspective. Just seeing my little girls and knowing I was going to experience life all over again - I'd be able to take them to the same things that my mom did - it was beautiful. When you become a mom, you gain this vulnerability that is so beautiful. Just the fact that I'm vulnerable but I'm never ashamed is so cool.
I never did anything I'm really ashamed of.
Don't be ashamed to learn from others.
Precocious and eccentric are okay. But I think that people in the arts represent something integral and kind of secretive in everybody else. So the reason people like some artists is because they're saying or doing something that they would like to do or say, but they don't have the balls or the means. People are really afraid to put their ass on the line. Just to put your face on a poster and put your name in big print and say "Come see me," that takes some cojones, you know? Ambition is nothing to be ashamed of.
Being outspoken about my faith isn't just something that I do; it's who I am because my faith isn't just a little piece of my life. It is my life. It's not a question of whether I'm outspoken about it or not. I'm definitely not ashamed of it.

I was never a hundred percent comfortable with the women I was hanging with because I was afraid they'd find out that I'm still the same person I was in junior high. With Idina, I didn't have to be ashamed of the nerd inside that came out.
What a man is ashamed of is always at bottom himself; and he is ashamed of himself at bottom always for being afraid.
If you do the best you can, you have nothing to be ashamed of. A defeat is not a disgrace.
I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ
