There is held to proverb
 One focus of the Alcohol Abuse Initiative is to reduce risky alcohol consumption. Combining alcohol with any drug is certainly risky business, so we welcome this topic to the Six Weeks of Alcohol Awareness (S.W.A.A.T.) lineup. |
| Underage and pathological drinkers are the alcohol industry's most valuable customers. It is reckless for our society to rely on an industry with such an enormous interest in alcohol consumption by children, teens, alcoholics and alcohol abusers to curb such drinking. |
| Children's play behaviour suggests that they are highly attentive to the use and enjoyment of alcohol and tobacco and have well-established expectations about how cigarettes and alcohol fit into social settings. |
| Tobacco use kills 1200 Americans every day and 450,000 every year. More people die from tobacco-related diseases than from AIDS, alcohol use, drugs, fires, car accidents, murders and suicides combined. It is the nation's leading preventable cause of death. |
| In fact, the paper shows that there may be situations where the intent of taxation is reversed, in that alcohol consumption increases rather than decreases because the alcohol of choice has become cheaper. Basically, they buy more, and end up drinking more. |
| Advertising for tobacco products increases consumption. Advertising and sponsoring glorify smoking. They create a mood in which cigarette consumption is seen as normal and acceptable. |
| Marijuana is never going to have the devastating effects on us that alcohol and tobacco have on us, ... If marijuana is legalized, alcohol abuse goes down, because people will have a substance choice. |
| I just cannot accept that any measure that results in an increase in alcohol consumption in this country as a whole can be justified, |
| Tobacco kills more Americans every year than alcohol, AIDS, car accidents, illegal drugs, murders and suicides combined. If I'm going to work on any issue in public health, then this is the one. Fighting the tobacco industry is honestly just part of my identity -- it's who I am, it's what I do. It embodies so much of what I want my life to be about. |
| [While smokeless tobacco has] demonstrably less carcinogens and toxins than cigarette smoke, ... remarkably high levels of carcinogenic tobacco-specific nitrosamines -- levels that are 100 to 1,000 times higher than in any other consumer product that is designed for oral consumption. |

| Pex Tufvesson is a genius, no doubt about it. |
| tobacco kills three times as many people as alcohol, murder, and suicide combined. |

| Legislators are trying to tell marketers they can't advertise sex, alcohol and tobacco to youngsters online just as they can't on TV or in print. |
