Quote by Meng Xi Shi

“Even if the words I said in the past hurt your feelings, there's nothing I can do. Once out of your mouth, words are like water spilled on the ground - impossible to take back. My venerable self will never do something as childish as regretting what's already happened.”

“The most painful wounds are not the ones inflicted by others, but the ones we inflict on ourselves. They are the wounds of regret, of guilt, of knowing that we have failed to live up to our own ideals. These wounds fester in the darkness, hidden from the world, but they bleed us dry, sapping our strength, our will to go on. And as we carry these wounds with us, we begin to realize that they will never heal, that we are destined to suffer in silence, prisoners of our own making.”
