"what's right isn't always popular. what's popular isn't always right."

 what this quote is saying is that not everything you do is gonna lead to a right cause for you to become popular. Sometimes you could do a bad thing and "think" your popular or you can do the right thing and be popular. The world doesn't revolve around bad habits you can make your habits good and become a greater person, have better character then other people.So next time you think of doing something wrong change your mind and do the good deed.
