About This Quote

The quote: "I didn't give you this life, honey. They took to you because of who you are. You gave yourself this life" means that we have a choice in life. We can either give up and give in or we can fight and fight to be the best that we can be.

In the end, we will get what we deserve for our actions. When someone is successful it's because they wanted to win and worked hard enough to get there.
