About This Quote

When Nelson Mandela said, "Oh, well, I know that Libby. I've never met anyone more committed to, well, life that you are," he was referring to the fact that Libby always tried her best to make the most of life in spite of all the mistakes she made in the past. He was also implying that even though Libby had completely screwed up her life many times before, she still managed to pull herself together and make things right in the end.
