Regret Quote by Karina Halle
““I'd give everything to back to that moment and make things right." "Would you really? Would you go back in time and change that, if you could?" "No. No, maybe not. Because then I wouldn't have this. I wouldn't have you. I have to live with my mistakes, but I don't have to regret them. I regret my actions but I can't regret the consequences.””
