About This Quote
There are no second chances in life, except to feel remorse. This quote has a lot of weight behind it. It is a common belief that when you have one chance in life, you have to make it count. You have to do the best that you can and not take it for granted.
However, there is a second chance given in life and that is the opportunity given by a second chance. The second chance does not happen when you get a second chance at anything else in your life. Instead, the second chance comes from the only thing that matters in your life: yourself.
If you don't make the best use of the opportunity to learn from mistakes made in the past, then you won't know what can be learned from mistakes made in life. In this quote, he tells us that we must always move forward from our mistakes because there are no second chances in life to feel remorse or regret about what happened before.
