Her quotes from the movie for sharing:
I knew at that moment I had to make a choice. I could submit to everything that was happening and live a life of excuses... or I could push myself. I could push myself and make my life good. ~Liz Murray
I'm smart. I know I can succeed. I just need a chance. A chance to climb out of this place I've born in. Everyone I know are angry and tired. They're trying to survive. But I know that there is a world out there that is better, that's better developed. And I want to live in it. ~ Liz Murray
My mother was dying. My father was gone. But I had to believe that their road
would rise up to meet me. ~ Liz Murray
The road did rise for her. She did it with pure will, attitude and a fire in herself that would not be put out by anyone.
The human spirit will always be stronger than we could ever imagine. Tap into your spirit, tap into your fire and make a difference.
