They never let you live it down. One little mistake! "- Nero

About This Quote

The phrase “they never let you live it down” is a biting remark about the way we human beings react to mistakes. We often take them personally, and we tend to be overly critical of ourselves. You may feel like your life is over after making a mistake, and you may be wondering, "how can I get them to stop pointing this out?" We all make mistakes, and we all should learn from them. The best thing that we can do is not to let people “let us live it down.”
