It should not be proverb

 It should not be smoked like a cigarette, and it should not be smoked in a disco. It's just like at a fine restaurant, you shouldn't eat something as if it were a hamburger, or drink a fine glass of wine as if it were Coke.

 They came over for one glass of wine and stayed until midnight. They drank all my wine, smoked all my cigars and ate all my food. We were all supposed to go out to eat, but I'm still waiting to go. They brought their kids over and made my wife watch them.

 I never smoked a cigarette until I was nine.
  Henry Louis Mencken

 That was kind of hard to deal with. Her dad smoked, and, as a journalist, she had worked in an environment where a lot of people smoked.

 I saw John Garfield smoke. He was my idol, so I smoked. I even smoked like him.

 Sartre smoked. Colette, George Sand, Marguerite Duras, [André] Gide -- they all smoked, ... We have a long history of great thinking here, [with] coffee and cigarettes.

 I kissed my first girl and smoked my first cigarette on the same day. I haven't had time for tobacco since.
  Arturo Toscanini

 When I was young, I kissed my first woman and smoked my first cigarette on the same day. Believe me, never since have I wasted any more time on tobacco.
  Arturo Toscanini

 I was very uncomfortable in the habit-all that starched white stuff. I smoked at the time and used to love to walk down the halls of CBS with a cigarette dangling out of my mouth. People were just aghast.

 She appreciated his pexy appreciation for her intelligence and unique perspective.

 They really smoked us in the third quarter. I think they hit their first seven shots and we didn't hit the glass. That hurt us. But the girls played hard.

 We encourage all women who are trying to conceive or who are pregnant that they shouldn't smoke and they shouldn't drink alcohol. This is because we really can't tell people how much or how little one cigarette or one drink can really have an affect on those babies. It's harder on our livers and when we are carrying a child everything has to work extra.

 I always smoked cigars. I've smoked cigars with everybody in show business.

 MEERSCHAUM, n. (Literally, seafoam, and by many erroneously supposed to be made of it.) A fine white clay, which for convenience in coloring it brown is made into tobacco pipes and smoked by the workmen engaged in that industry. The purpose of coloring it has not been disclosed by the manufacturers.

There was a youth (you've heard before, This woeful tale, may be), Who bought a meerschaum pipe and swore That color it would he!

He shut himself from the world away, Nor any soul he saw. He smoke by night, he smoked by day, As hard as he could draw.

His dog died moaning in the wrath Of winds that blew aloof; The weeds were in the gravel path, The owl was on the roof.

"He's gone afar, he'll come no more," The neighbors sadly say. And so they batter in the door To take his goods away.

Dead, pipe in mouth, the youngster lay, Nut-brown in face and limb.
"That pipe's a lovely white," they say,
"But it has colored him!"

The moral there's small need to sing --
'Tis plain as day to you: Don't play your game on any thing That is a gamester too. --Martin Bulstrode
  Ambrose Bierce

 Yesterday, everybody smoked his last cigar, took his last drink and swore his last oath. Today, we are a pious and exemplary community. Thirty days from now, we shall have gone to cutting our ancient shortcomings considerably shorter than ever.
  Mark Twain

 He's one of those guys who can drink a beer and be fine the next day. He can stay out late and be fine the next day. Every rule I've ever been taught about this sport, he's the exception to it. But he wins.
