I just feel like I have a chance to be a role model now.

— Kane Brown

I honestly do feel that I am a role model for young people.

— R. Lee Ermey

I didn’t have any role models really. My best friend was a dog. My mum and dad saved a dog from the gutter and that dog was my brother before Jesse was born. Sami was his name and he was my role model.

— Ville Valo

You know, I want to help my country. Definitely I can help them, simply by winning races. Sure, they can follow my path to a good career. But for me it is not enough. I want to be more than that. In everything I want to be a role model.

— Haile Gebrselassie

I guess it’s because I do have a younger audience that, you know, parents worry about the role model thing. But when I was younger, I looked up to people, but I never wanted to be them. I always had my own identity. I’m an entertainer when I’m on stage, and they need to explain that to their kids. That’s not my job to do that.

— Britney Spears

Yes. I was the first female colonel. I enjoyed being that kind of role model for young women watching the show. A woman can be a colonel! A woman can be in charge! Those were new ideas then.

— Erin Gray

I don’t consciously try to be a role model, so I don’t know if I am or not. That’s for other people to decide.

— Wilma Rudolph

I know the first female astronauts selected were definitely an inspiration to me, and so maybe I will be a role model.

— Peggy Whitson

I know I’m never going to be one of those size 2 actresses – that’s just not me. But I do want to be the healthiest I can be, and a role model to women of all shapes and sizes.

— Octavia Spencer

I kind of take Hilary as a role model because she started out at about the same age. She hadn’t done much before starting her series, and I haven’t either.

— Miley Cyrus

If you read many of my Middle Grade and YA book series, you would notice the common theme of how the main characters always choose to be good. That’s because when you write for YA, as an author, you automatically become a person of authority. Be a good role model yourself as a YA author. Help teens grow up into responsible and good adults. YA Authors – Don’t get accused of sexual harassment (like some authors) or of encouraging your teen readers to gang up on and bully /harass an author. I’ve been the receiving end of that kind of behavior, and it is cyberbullying and harassment. Authors and anyone in a position of authority who encourage teens and kids to cyberbully another human being is not a good role model.

— Kailin Gow

You cannot force commitment, what you can do…You nudge a little here, inspire a little there, and provide a role model. Your primary influence is the environment you create.

— Peter Senge

I’d like to be the role model to teach other people who have Down’s syndrome to be actors and actresses and to be themselves and not try to be a big shot.

— Chris Burke

It feels great to be a role model and I’m very careful with the things I do. I’m not perfect, I do make a lot of mistakes, but I try my best.

— Angie Stone

My heritage is something that I have always been aware of, however, some would say that there is a disproportionately low number of Asians as professional athletes. I take pride in trying my best to be a role model to show young Asian American boys and girls that they are only limited by the size of their dreams.

— Nathan Adrian

Batman doesn’t want a baby in order to feel he’s ‘done everything’. He’s just saved Gotham again! If this means that Batman must be a feminist role model above, say, Nicola Horlick, then so be it.

— Caitlin Moran

It’s hard to consider myself one when a lot of my fans and people who are calling me a role model are people my age and sometimes older than me. I feel like they’re at the same walk of life that I’m in right now, and they can probably teach me things about life, too.

— Alessia Cara

I’m not sure that an athlete is prepared to be a role model. He has a lot of attention paid to him that he shouldn’t have, and then the athletes tend to think of themselves as better than they are.

— Bobby Knight

People can say I am a terrible role model because I swear all the time or that I fight people. Look, I don’t want little girls to have the same ambitions as me. I want them to know that it is O.K. to be ambitious. I want them to know that it is O.K. to say whatever it is that is on their mind.

— Ronda Rousey

I hear all the time from our audience about how it’s nice to see a positive African-American role model for the younger kids out there that are watching.

— Aldis Hodge

My grandfather was raising me, and in many respects, I was trying to understand what it meant to be a man. He was my role model.

— Liev Schreiber

My father wasn’t the best role model to me.

— Joe Torre

Being a role model is the most powerful form of educating…too often fathers neglect it because they get so caught up in making a living they forget to make a life.

— John Wooden

During the second term of the Clinton presidency… I thought, ‘Here is the literal and figurative role model for the United States of America behaving like a perverted little kid.’ I just found it all really unmanly and undignified.

— The Ultimate Warrior

For the world of football, Messi is a treasure because he is role model for children around the world… Messi will be the player to win the most Ballons d’Or in history. He will win five, six, seven. He is incomparable. He’s in a different league.

— Johan Cruijff
