I googled some quotes and found these... some of 'em just cracked me up. =D [color=red] If we see you smoking we will assume you are on fire and take appropriate action. ~Douglas Adams[/color] [color=orange] Much smoking kills live men and cures dead swine. ~George D. Prentice (Took me a minute to get that... "cure" as in "cured ham," harhar)[/color] [color=green] The believing we do something when we do nothing is the first illusion of tobacco. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson[/color] [color=blue] Tobacco. Tumor causing, teeth staining, smelly, puking habit. ~Arizona Department of Health Services Tobacco Education and Prevention Program ad campaign, created by Riester-Robb Advertising[/color] [color=purple] Nicotine patches are great. Stick one over each eye and you can't find your cigarettes. ~Author Unknown[/color] [color=red] The best way to stop smoking is to just stop - no ifs, ands or butts. ~Edith Zittler[/color] [color=orange] Thank heaven, I have given up smoking again!... God! I feel fit. Homicidal, but fit. A different man. Irritable, moody, depressed, rude, nervy, perhaps; but the lungs are fine. ~A.P. Herbert (LOL, some days ARE like that!)[/color] [color=green] I'd rather kiss a mad cow on the muzzle than a smoker on the mouth. ~Paul Carvel[/color] [color=blue] A cigarette is a pipe with a fire at one end and a fool at the other. ~Author Unknown[/color] [color=purple] Please don't throw your cigarette butts in the urinal. It makes them soggy and hard to light. ~Author Unknown (Eeeewww! But it did make me giggle.)[/color] [color=red] I'm glad I don't have to explain to a man from Mars why each day I set fire to dozens of little pieces of paper, and put them in my mouth. ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Second Neurotic's Notebook, 1966[/color] [color=orange] They threaten me with lung cancer, and still I smoke and smoke. If they'd only threaten me with hard work, I might stop. ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Second Neurotic's Notebook, 1966[/color] [color=green] The best way to stop smoking is to carry wet matches. ~Author Unknown[/color] LOL, I love stuff like this.

But what was it she expected us to do with tobacco?" - Bill Vaughan[/color] [color=navy]"Tobacco drieth the brain, dimmeth the sight, vitiateth the smell, hurteth the stomach, destroyeth the concoction, disturbeth the humors and spirits, corrupteth the breath, induceth a trembling of the limbs, exsiccateth the windpipe, lungs, and liver, annoyeth the milt, scorcheth the heart, and causeth the blood to be adjusted." -T

I have collected lots of quotes in my quit journal~ He didn't die from a bomb or a bullet. He died from a cigarette. [size=1] � Dr. Fadlo Khuri, a lung cancer specialist and professor at Emory University's Winship Cancer Institute, on the death of Peter Jennings [/size] In our last conversation he kept saying, 'Those damn cigarettes, those damn cigarettes.' [size=1]� Johnny Carson's brother, TV producer Dick Carson.[/size] It's bad enough that our troops are targeted by terrorist bullets. It's a tragedy that so many of them will die because they were targeted by Big Tobacco. [size=1]� Debra Kelley, vice president of government relations for the American Lung Association of California, on the skyrocketing smoking rates of US troops in Iraq.[/size] U.S. Patent No. 6,202,649: 'Method of Treating Tobacco to Reduce Nitrosamine Content, and Products Produced Thereby' [size=1]� Star Scientific's heat-exchanger/tobacco curing patent, granted in 2001.[/size] To lose 10 years off your life isn't trivial. It's like losing your retirement years. [size=1]� Dr Charles Saunders, chair of the British Medical Association[/size] We're not there to start a bad habit with anybody, because you know, it's an elective thing. If you want 'em and a guy hands 'em to you, you can take 'em. If you don't, you can hand them back. [size=1]� WOAI talk show host Jeff Bolton, who started "Sticks for Soldiers," which sends cigars to military personnel in Afghanistan and Iraq.[/size] The toxins from cigarette smoke go everywhere the blood flows. [size=1]� U.S. Surgeon General Richard H. Carmona[/size] Smoking in men is a tragedy because a lot of the damage was done in the 1940s and 1950s, before the tobacco industry was aware of how dangerous cigarettes were. But in women it's a crime because the cigarette companies made a conscious decision to market to women in the 1960s, after they knew, and a lot of women are now addicted as a result. [size=1]� Dr. Fred Grannis, head of thoracic surgery of City of Hope Hospital in Los Angeles.[/size] The hand holding a lit cigarette is the same height of a child's face. It's not uncommon for us to see young mothers with lung cancer. It is not a disease that hits people in their 70s anymore. [size=1]� David Ball from Pe
