Every attempt to make war easy and safe will result in humiliation and disaster.

The only way into truth is through one's own annihilation through dwelling a long time in a state of extreme and total humiliation.

It has always been a mystery to me how men can feel themselves honoured by the humiliation of their fellow beings.

Performers are so vulnerable. They're frightened of humiliation sure their work will be crap. I try to make an environment where it's warm where it's OK to fail - a kind of home I suppose.

We have arrived at that point of time in which we are forced to see our own humiliation as a nation and that a progression in this line cannot be a productive of happiness private or public.

A great wind swept over the ghetto carrying away shame invisibility and four centuries of humiliation. But when the wind dropped people saw it had been only a little breeze friendly almost gentle.

The greatest humiliation in life is to work hard on something from which you expect great appreciation and then fail to get it.

Personal technology has given us the freedom of being able to do whatever we want - and in the case of celebrities and athletes whomever they want. But it can also serve as a humiliation jetpack.

Poverty entails fear and stress and sometimes depression. It meets a thousand petty humiliations and hardships. Climbing out of poverty by your own efforts that is something on which to pride yourself but poverty itself is romanticized by fools.

I feel like if I won an award and I was giving my speech and the music started that's all I'd remember the humiliation I felt when the music started. It would mar the entire experience for me.
