Regret is cognitively laden to an unusual degree... it requires us to think in a practical way about a decision that we made while also being.
I never knew true happiness until I got marriedBy then, it was too late

Regret is a denial of the soul, for to regret one's own experiences is to arrest one's own development, to deny one's own experiences is to put a lie into the lips of one's own life.



Regret is a short, evocative and achingly beautiful word: an elegy to lost possibilities even in its brief annunciation.

Regret is an experience of felt-reason or reasoned emotion. one thing all regretted decisions have in common is that the person had an element of control.

Regret is an odd emotion because it comes only upon reflection. It lacks immediacy, and so its power seldom influences events when it could do some good.
