Summary

This quote suggests that while it is natural to feel anger and frustration when faced with disappointing or unjust circumstances, a person of intelligence, bravery, and wisdom will not dwell on past regrets or dwell on negative feelings.

It highlights the importance of resilience, optimism, and the ability to focus on the present and future rather than dwelling on past mistakes or grievances.
