About this Quote

This quote by Lord Byron speaks with the idea of living life to the fullest and not being sorry for the past. He is saying that he does not be sorry for the satisfaction he has actually experienced in the past, nor does he worry about the risks that might can be found in the future. Rather, his greatest sadness is that he will leave this world without having actually done anything that would make another person shed a tear. He is suggesting that he has not done anything meaningful or considerable sufficient to make a long lasting effect on the world. He is encouraging us to take advantage of our lives and to strive to do something that will make a difference and be kept in mind. He is reminding us that life is brief which we need to maximize it and leave something behind that will make people remember us.
