… Smoking sets a bad example.
The President smoked cigars but never in public:
My mother was a terrible narcissist and I could well have turned out like her.
I am the worst influence. If you can't handle your vices, then I am the Devil.
Bad nature never lacks an instructor.
I have respect for Chisora as a fighter but not as a human. He set a bad example for boxing and all fighters. He came from Great Britain, but he is not a gentleman.
'Like Father, Like Son' gave me the opportunity to show when it is not good with a father.
I never wanted my kids to feel about me the way I felt about him.

My one purpose in life is to serve as a warning to others.
Eddie had the perfect template of what not to do. His big brother did all the wrong things.
And for him [Kurt Cobain] to do that [suicide] - I didn't like that. I thought that was just wrong. It just sent a bad message to a troubled generation.
No one seems to want to do anything about diving in the game apart from me. I'm still amazed by it. Kids everywhere are watching, all copying it. No one seems to care about it.
I don't advocate any child following in their parent's footsteps when their parent's footsteps are as crooked as mine are.
Several professional athletes have wrongly taught many young Americans by example that the only way to succeed in sports is to take steroids.
That's what Major League Baseball's steroid scandal was all about, the hidden harm in competitive sports that sends the wrong message to the young.
I wanted BoJack to be more of a cautionary figure than someone that you aspire to be.
No-one wants to grow up and be a Gary Neville.
DiCaprio's life is the perfect example of how not to be. I would not wish his life on anybody.
I came from a single parent household. And I had a bad example of what a husband and father could be and how irresponsible a father could be. So because of that, I didn't want to get married or have kids.
The same actor plays the role of a thief and a police officer on-screen. It's not fair to look for role models in them.
Learning how to be a good parent was easy in the end because I'd basically had the What Not To Do manual.
