The line is originally from a movie called The Fighting Temptations. Here’s the scene if you’re interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPMViJLucFQ&featur...
Lilly: You know what Sally told me once? She said when life makes you have to put up with mean and hateful people, just think of 'em as sandpaper. They may scratch you, rub you the wrong way... But eventually, you end up smooth and polished. And the sandpaper? It's just gon' be worn out and ugly.

Don't know, don't care. I prefer, "Hurt me once, shame on you. Hurt me twice, shame on me."
