Shame, Pride, and True Penitence

WE are often more ashamed than grieved and humbled for our sins. Our own consciousness of them does not pain us nearly so much as it would to have them known to others; see, therefore, whether what you call your penitence is not more pride than anything else.—Thomas Adam.
