I can promote non-smoking by not smoking myself and by talking to people about the risks of smoking and if that doesn't get them to stop, i respect that.

"What's right isn't always popular. What's popular isn't always right." - Albert Einstein I agree with this quote. I agree with this quote because it is true.
