More quotes by Monica Lewinsky
To mock at a soul in pain is a dreadful thing.
Monica Lewinsky
Try and have neutral compassion toward the perpetrator. Step outside the sting of the incident and realize that this person is trying to erase their own inadequacy or unhappiness by transferring it to you. It won't make the incident go away, but it's one thing you can do to reduce the pain.
Monica Lewinsky
I, myself, deeply regret what happened between me and President Clinton. Let me say it again: I. Myself. Deeply. Regret. What. Happened.
Monica Lewinsky
I've learned not to put things in my mouth that are bad for me.
Monica Lewinsky
Sure, my boss took advantage of me, but I will always remain firm on this point: it was a consensual relationship. Any 'abuse' came in the aftermath, when I was made a scapegoat in order to protect his powerful position.
Monica Lewinsky
Public humiliation is a commodity and shame is an industry.
Monica Lewinsky

Monica Lewinsky

Monica Lewinsky
Getting and keeping my immunity became very important to me. For I needed to take care of myself and my family. No one else was worried about me.
Monica Lewinsky
I tried to walk a line between acting lawfully and testifying falsely, but I now recognize that I did not fully accomplish this goal and that certain of my responses to questions about Ms. Lewinsky were false.
Monica Lewinsky
Online we have a compassion deficit
Monica Lewinsky
When I think of the person that I thought was Bill Clinton, I think he had genuine remorse. When I think of the person that I now see is 100 percent politician, I think he's sorry he got caught.
Monica Lewinsky
I mean, there was a portion, of course, that I think, when I look back now, that there was a portion of what attracted me must have been the awe of him being a powerful man in this environment, not to take away from who he is as a real person.
Monica Lewinsky
My creativity comes from an unhoned place, if 'unhoned' is a word.
Monica Lewinsky
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't angry some days. But I really have worked hard to put a lot of the anger and disappointment in the past.
Monica Lewinsky
I'm probably the only person over 40 who does not want to be 22 again.
Monica Lewinsky
I know I will never have an affair with a married man again.
Monica Lewinsky
Building a more compassionate society is going to be a bilateral exercise between individuals and the brands that represent their aspirations, their values and their truths. People make brands. If people are compassionate, brands will be compassionate in return.
Monica Lewinsky
