This quote is almost a perfect summation of Voldemort. He believes that he is the greatest wizard to have ever lived, and also the most powerful. He believed that he could conquer death and therefore made Horcruxes, to which he is reffering to in this quote. He had already underestimated the power of love once when he killed Lily to kill Harry and was torn from his body, and after that, he still refused to believe that even after his "rebirth", that the love sacrifice would account for anything.
This is a strong quote, and it shows Voldemort's ignorance to good and his failure to realize the true power of love, which JKR clearly has made the most powerful thing in the Harry Potter universe. He is so shrouded with evil that he cannot even come to terms with the true power, as we see when he tries to possess Harry after Sirius' death. He created his own downfall.
Mischief Managed.
