She was spoiled, but she wasn't lazy. She knew what she wanted, and because she believed absolutely that she could have everything she wanted if she tried hard enough to get it, she never stopped trying.

About This Quote

She was spoiled, but she wasn't lazy. She knew what she wanted, and because she believed absolutely that she could have everything she wanted if she tried hard enough to get it, she never stopped trying. This quote is about the last days of a relationship, when the person you're in love with is constantly complaining about how "spoiled" you are and how they don't like the things you like. They will constantly tell you that they don't like your music or that they hate that you like to go out on Saturdays. But it's not their fault, because they didn't know how to express themselves when you were in the relationship and so they felt insecure and gave in to your preferences in order to stay close to you.
