Remorse Quotes

Chronic remorse, as all the moralists are agreed, is a most undesirable sentiment. If you have behaved badly, repent, make what amends you can and address yourself to the task of behaving better next time. On no account brood over your wrongdoing. Rolling in the muck is not the best way of getting clean Picture Quote #1

Being conscious of having done a wicked action leaves stings of remorse behind it, which, like an ulcer in the flesh, makes the mind smart with perpetual wounds; for reason, which chases away all other pains, creates repentance, shames the soul with confusion, and punishes it with torment Picture Quote #1

$Beneath the skin, there is fear. Pain. Remorse. Yearning. Desire. A fierce longing for power. All of this. We are joined. It is as if we live in the center of a great storm. Around us the world of the realms revolves like a giant kaleidoscope, images refracted again and again. So many worlds! So much to know Picture Quote #1$

From this outer edge of his life, looking back, there was only one remorse, and that was only that he wished to go on living. Did all dying people feel this way, as if they had never lived? Did life seem that short, indeed, over and done before you took a breath? Did it seem this abrupt and impossible to everyone, or only to himself, here, now, with a few hours left to him for thought and deliberation? Picture Quote #1

And no, it wasn’t shame I now felt, or guilt, but something rarer in my life and stronger than both: remorse. A feeling which is more complicated, curdled, and primeval. Whose chief characteristic is that nothing can be done about it: too much time has passed, too much damage has been done, for amends to be made Picture Quote #1

Whenever a warrior decides to do something, he must go all the way, but he must take responsibility for what he does. No matter what he does, he must know first why he is doing it, and then he must proceed with his actions without having doubts or remorse about them Picture Quote #1

It is not the conscience which raises a blush, for a man may sincerely regret some slight fault committed in solitude, or he may suffer the deepest remorse for an undetected crime, but he will not blush... It is not the sense of guilt, but the thought that others think or know us to be guilty which crimsons the face Picture Quote #1

Well the first thing I’d say is that I’m not sure exactly what I’m supposed to do to show my remorse other than to say that I’m remorseful Picture Quote #1

Prefer loss to the wealth of dishonest gain; the former vexes you for a time; the latter will bring you lasting remorse Picture Quote #1

A little remorse they felt too in front of those who knew nothing, but it made their memories all the sweeter, for remorse is the best spice of all Picture Quote #1

Repentance must be something more than mere remorse for sins: it comprehends a change of nature befitting heaven Picture Quote #1

Remorse of conscience is like an old wound; a man is in no condition to fight under such circumstances. The pain abates his vigor and takes up too much of his attention Picture Quote #1

There is no remorse like a remorse of chess. It is a curse upon man. There is no happiness in chess Picture Quote #1

Every fresh act of sin lessens fear and remorse, hardens our hearts, blunts the edge of our conscience, and increases our evil inclination Picture Quote #1

It really is a day job, and it also seems to have virtually disappeared - with no remorse, really. It gives me more time to paint Picture Quote #1

Remorse is virtue’s root; its fair increase Are fruits of innocence and blessedness Picture Quote #1

At the end of the day, every child has learned the Lesson of Spin: Almost every wrong action can be stripped of consequences, along with the need for feelings of guilt and remorse Picture Quote #1

Remorse is sorrow over being caught and the pain of consequences that follow. Repentance is not being concerned for ourselves but having a contrite heart Picture Quote #1

Guilt doesn’t help. What should fill in for it? Remorse. Remorse is when you feel bad about what you did. Guilt is when you feel bad about who you are Picture Quote #1

Every self-respecting act of persuasion must find appeal to curiosity, then to vanity, and lastly to kindness or remorse. Isabella looked down and slowly nodded Picture Quote #1

We’ve developed a very complex filing system for existence. We see things in terms of good or bad. We feel happiness, joy, pain, loss, guilt and remorse Picture Quote #1

There’s a difference between remorse and repentance. Remorse is being sorry for being caught. Repentance is being sorry enough to stop Picture Quote #1

I’m easily frightened, and I’ve also come to realize that old Catholic guilt or remorse is easily stimulated Picture Quote #1

Regret is not a proactive feeling. It is situated in disappointment, sorrow, even remorse. It merely wishes things were different without an act to cause a difference. However, repentance is different. Repentance is an admission of, hatred of, and turning away from sin before God Picture Quote #1

Temptation can be tormenting, but remember: The torment of temptation to sin is nothing to compare with the torment of the consequences of sin. Remorse and regret cannot compensate for sin....though sins can be forgiven immediately - the consequences can last a lifetime Picture Quote #1

I’ve come to believe that the most dangerous man in the world is the one who feels no remorse. The one who never apologizes and therefore seeks no forgiveness. Because in the end it is our emotions that make us weak, not our actions Picture Quote #1

In luck or out the toil has left its mark: That old perplexity an empty purse, Or the day’s vanity, the night’s remorse Picture Quote #1

The difference between anger and deep remorse - remorse is much fatter. It’s a deeper feeling altogether. Anger is too easy an escape for my money Picture Quote #1
