Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.

Mark Twain

You can never regret anything you do in life. You kind of have to learn the lesson from whatever the experience is and take it with you on your journey forward.

Aubrey O'Day

I went through college while working a full-time manual-labor job, and I don't regret a minute of it; it was a great learning experience.

Phyllis Schlafly

Looking back, I have this to regret, that too often when I loved, I did not say so.

Ray Stannard Baker

Do what you love and go after your dreams. Don't regret it. Don't hesitate.

Jackson Wang

Later in my life, I'm going to look back and smile and be very fulfilled. I know that if I don't give it my all right now I'll regret it later. That's very important to me, because I've worked all my life to have this.

Shania Twain

I have grown to appreciate the power of believing in myself and of always having faith in myself. I rarely look back; instead, I always look forward. There is so much of life that we miss when we wallow in regret.

Tony Bennett

I regret any comments I have ever made which may have cast any doubt on the personal faith of our president, Mr. Obama.

Franklin Graham

I don't think that much about my relationship with my mother and what it did to me. I sometimes feel terrible regret about her, what her life must have been like. Often, when I'm enjoying something, I think of how meager her rewards were and how much courage, in a way, she needed to go on living.

Alice Munro

It was my duty to shoot the enemy, and I don't regret it. My regrets are for the people I couldn't save: Marines, soldiers, buddies. I'm not naive, and I don't romanticize war. The worst moments of my life have come as a SEAL. But I can stand before God with a clear conscience about doing my job.

Chris Kyle

I'd rather regret the things I've done than regret the things I haven't done.

Lucille Ball

Regret for the things we did can be tempered by time; it is regret for the things we did not do that is inconsolable.

Sydney J. Harris
