This quote means Montresor must not feel anguish and regret when

probably notice‚ story "The Cask of Amontillado" by Edgar Ellan Poe is told from a first point of view by Monstresor. He is not a fully reliable narrator‚ we assume‚ although from his revealed thoughts‚ feelings‚ and intentions (his plans to kill his avenger Fortunato)‚ we better understand his "nature" (of how crazy he was).

To kill the person who has killed someone close to you is simply to continue the cycle of violence which ultimately destroys the avenger as well as the offender. That this execution somehow gives ’closure’ to a tragedy is a myth. Expressing one’s violence simply reinforces the desire to express it. Just as expressing anger simply makes us more angry. It does not drain away. It contaminates

According to Topchyan‚ who is a doctor of philology‚ “Regardless of how we interpret the Prince’s strange words‚ his failure is evident: once again he tries to represent himself as a decided and pitiless avenger‚ but this is not proved by action.
