People Shame These Days

More From William H. Macy

...nameless, unknown to me as you were, i couldn't forget your voice!' 'for how long?' 'o - ever so long. days and days.' 'days and days! only days and days? o, the heart of a man! days and days!' 'but, my dear madam, i had not known you more than a day or two. it was not a full-blown love - it was the merest bud - red, fresh, vivid, but small. it was a colossal passion in embryo. it never returned.

Shame is the proper reaction when one has purposefully violated the accepted behavior of society. inflicting it is etiquette's response when its rules are disobeyed. the law has all kinds of nasty ways of retaliating when it is disregarded, but etiquette has only a sense of social shame to deter people from treating others in ways they know are wrong. so naturally miss manners wants to maintain the sense of shame. some forms of discomfort are fully justified, and the person who feels shame ought to be dealing with removing its causes rather than seeking to relieve the symptoms.

You are putting yourself in serious danger...' i think that i preferred to put myself in serious danger rather than confront my shame. my shame at not having become someone, the shame of not having made my parents proud after all the sacrifices they had made for me. the shame of having become a mediocre nihilist.

The difference between guilt and shame is very clear--in theory. we feel guilty for what we do. we feel shame for what we are. a person feels guilt because he did something wrong. a person feels shame because he is something wrong. we may feel guilty because we lied to our mother. we may feel shame because we are not the person our mother wanted us to be.

I really love doing nothing. i really love just being at home and taking a couple of days, you know, doing nothing. you know what i mean? just getting up, being around the house, going outside the back yard, coming back in; i really like to do nothing because i travel a lot. there's a lot of travelling. there's a lot of on the phone all the time. there's a lot of looking at papers and reading things and so you don't want to read magazines and you don't want to do anything; you don't want to read books, you just want to just kind of shut down a little bit.

I don't know what it is about human beings but most of us really like reading about or observing sexual tension and romance. it's just so much fun. i don't know if there is some darwinian thing in us that really responds to that, but i think the most memorable scenes to me in books and movies are the ones where a couple is about to kiss.

I hope to keep writing journalism as long as i write fiction; it's afforded me such amazing adventures and opportunities. it does take a lot of time, so it's hard to do both at once, but i try to do a big journalism piece every couple of years, and i'll hopefully continue with that.
Couple Writing Adventure
It was as if they had leapt over the arduous cavalry of conjugal life and gone straight to the heart of love. they were together in silence like an old married couple wary of life, beyond the pitfalls of passion, beyond the brutal mockery of hope and the phantoms of disillusion: beyond love. for they had lived together long enough to know that love was always love, anytime and anyplace, but it was more solid the closer it came to death.
