"When I was in school, I was a bad kid. Later, when I was invited to give a talk at the school, I wasn't sure if I should tell the kids that they should study hard, or that it is okay to be a rebel. I wasn't sure what advice to give the kids. Studying hard doesn't guarantee you will become a respectable person. Even if you're a bad kid...there are people like me who change. I thought that would be a good lesson to teach. But if I said that bad kids can succeed later on like I did all the kids would start misbehaving, which would be a problem. Always doing what you are told doesn't mean you'll succeed in life."
