Why does the Q factor reduce as we move away from the resonant frequency?

I am not able to understand why the Quality factor reduces as we move away from the resonance frequency for any LC oscillator.

Either die a white noise or live long enough to see yourself become the 1/f noise.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_factor
Q is the ratio of the energy stored in the oscillating resonator to the energy dissipated per cycle by damping processes.
