Quotes About Self-disgust

The truth remains. I was, and am, disgusted with myself.

To truly esteem oneself means that one must be capable of feeling shame or self-disgust when one does not live up to a certain standard

In every room there is a mirror before which he stands attentively and chews his rage, and from the constant chewing, from the grumbling and mumbling and the muttering and cursing his jaws have gotten unhinged and they sag badly and, when he rubs his beard, pieces of his jaw crumble away and he's so disgusted with himself that he stamps on his own jaw, grinds it to bits with his big heels.
~ Henry Miller
Åžu insan ne korkunç bir hayvan ki, kendi kendinden bu kadar iÄŸreniyor, kendi zevklerini ba??n?n belas? say?yor.

I am a man, he thought. Oh God, it is vile!

If you write for God you will reach many men and bring them joy. If you write for men--you may make some money and you may give someone a little joy and you may make a noise in the world, for a little while. If you write for yourself, you can read what you yourself have written and after ten minutes you will be so disgusted that you will wish that you were dead.
~ Thomas Merton
Woman cannot be content with health and agility: she must make exorbitant efforts to appea something that never could exist without a diligent perversion of nature. Is it too much to ask that women be spared the daily struggle for superhuman beauty in order to offer it to the caresses of a subhumanly ugly mate? Women are reputed never to be disgusted. The sad fact is that they often are, but not with men; following the lead of men, they are most often disgusted with themselves.
~ Germaine Greer
All is disgust when a man leaves his own nature and does what is unfit.
~ Sophocles
She hated herself more than she could express.
~ Jane Austen
The reason we have so many problems with our sexuality now is because so many of us have self-hatred and self-disgust, and so we treat ourselves and others badly.
~ Louise L. Hay
Now here he was, drunk and sober at the same time. Each half of him disgusted at the other.
~ Unknown
Hay que gritarle en el oído a la gente, ya que su aparente sordera es una especie de autodefensa, de cobarde y malsana autodefensa. Hay que lograr que se despierte en los demás la vergüenza de sí mismos, que se sustituya en ellos la autodefensa por el autoasco. El día en que el uruguayo sienta asco de su propia pasividad, ese día se convertirá en algo útil.
~ Mario Benedetti

Repentance always brings a person to the point of saying, "I have sinned." The surest sign that God is at work in his life is when he says that and means it. Anything less is simply sorrow for having made foolish mistakes—a reflex action caused by self-disgust.
~ Oswald Chambers
