regrets

«Maybe all one can do is hope to end up with the right regrets.»
Author: Arthur Miller (Playwright) | Keywords: end up, regrets
«People have to face regrets. Becoming mature means learning to accept what you cannot change, facing unresolved sorrows and learning to love life as it really happens, not as you would have it happen. When someone attaches unkindness to criticism, she's angry. Angry people need to criticize as an outlet for their anger. That's why you must reject unkind criticism. Unkind criticism is never part of a meaningful critique of you. Its purpose is not to teach or to help, its purpose is to punish. Life isn't supposed to be an all or nothing battle between misery and bliss. Life isn't supposed to be a battle at all. And when it comes to happiness, well, sometimes life is just okay, sometimes it's comfortable, sometimes wonderful, sometimes boring, sometimes unpleasant. When your day's not perfect, it's not a failure or a terrible loss. It's just another day.»

«Regrets are as personal as fingerprints.»
«Let us not bankrupt our todays by paying interest on the regrets of yesterday and by borrowing in advance the troubles of tomorrow.»
«Regrets are idle; yet history is one long regret. Everything might have turned out so differently.»
«Regrets are the natural property of grey hairs.»
«Make the most of your regrets; never smother your sorrow, but tend and cherish it till it comes to have a separate and integral interest. To regret deeply is to live afresh.»
«Nowadays most people die of a sort of creeping common sense, and discover when it is too late that the only things one never regrets are one's mistakes»
