About This Quote

A man must not be without shame, for the shame of being without shame is shamelessness indeed. This quote by William Shakespeare talks about a man who has no sense of shame. His lack of self-respect will have a negative impact on his life and the lives of those around him. In his eyes, he is a man who looks down upon other people and would do anything to get what he wants. He may not care about others or what they think, but instead acts in ways that can negatively effect other people's lives.
