Kelley Armstrong is by far one of my favorite authors. I could pull thousands of quotes from her books that I loved but I won't do that to you.
This is from The Hunter and The Hunted and the quote is from Clay Danvers.
“I won't make excuses for what I did. The truth is that your whole life can change with one split-second decision, and it doesn't matter if you told yourself you'd never do it or if you stepped into the moment with no intention of doing it. All it takes is for that one second of absolute panic when the solution shines right there in front of you, and you grab it… only to have it turn into ash in your hand. There is no excuse for what I did.” Clay
The Hunter and The Hunted
In Off-Duty Angel (Otherworld #10.4),
dark witch and half-demon Eve Levine is desperate for a little entertainment while her lover, Kristof Nast, is detained in afterlife court—enough to volunteer an extra week’s worth of angel corps duty just to pass the time. Luckily something even better comes up: a real celestial bounty-hunter mission to trail a shaman, someone who might prove to be a useful lead in Kristof’s court case. Following the target goes smoothly, until he leads Eve to the British Museum, where she inadvertently steps into a secret dimensional passage and stumbles upon a far more enticing puzzle . . . and a much greater danger.
This collection also includes Stalked (Otherworld #7.3), previously printed in My Big FatSupernatural Honeymoon.
It’s not a good sign when Elena Michaels and Clayton Danvers resort to everyday activities on their long-awaited honeymoon in St. Louis. But their encroaching boredom is about to take a backseat to an unexpected threat that catches Clay’s attention. A non-pack werewolf is clearly stalking them—out to claim Elena for himself—and Clay has no intention of letting the upstart mutt spoil their romantic getaway, even if that means deceiving Elena as he pursues the rival werewolf on his own.
Includes an exclusive early look at the first seven chapters of Thirteen, the Otherworld series finale

A great quote, and so true! So many lives have been changed by “one split-second decision.”

A great quote. I often run across situations where I think – “what if I could take that 1 second back”.
Speculative quotes are always the ones that remain with us forever as we constantly apply them to life.
