“If you achieve something good with hard work, the labour passes away, but the good remains. If you do something shameful for the sake of pleasure, the pleasure passes, but the shame remains.” - Musonius Rufus

This quote just rings true to me. I, just as many others have lived both sides. I have done so many shameful things the past 5 years in terms of not showing up and doing the work, and I can tell you, the shame really remains.
