Remorse is a strong, heavy feeling of being sorry — not for a small slip, but for something you believe was really wrong. It sits in the chest. You feel remorse after you have hurt someone, broken a trust, or done harm you cannot easily undo.

People say full of remorse or without remorse. Without remorse is a dark phrase: the person is not sorry at all, and we use it for cold or cruel behaviour.
People say人們會說full of remorse滿懷悔恨or或without remorse毫無悔恨。Without remorse這個說法is a dark phrase是個很陰暗的說法：the person is not sorry at all指這個人一點也不覺得抱歉and we use it for cold or cruel behaviour，用來形容冷酷或殘忍的行為。
Though actually, remorse is not the same as regret. Regret can be about a missed bus or a poor grade. Remorse is moral: you feel you have done something bad.
