"It is necessary to have traveled for a long time on a ship to understand that at least the cigar affords you the pleasure of smoking. It raises your spirits.

Are you troubled by something? The cigar dissolves it.

Are you subject to aches and pains (or bad temper)? The cigar will change your disposition.

Are you harassed by unpleasant thoughts? Smoking a cigar puts one in a frame of mind to dispense with these.

Do you ever feel a little faint from hunger? A cigar satisfies the yearning.

If you are obsessed by sad thoughts, a cigar will take your mind off of them.

Finally, don’t you sometimes have some unpleasant remembrance or consoling thought? A cigar will reinforce this.
Sometimes they die out, and happy are those who do not need to relight too quickly. I hardly need to say anything more about the cigar, to which I dedicate this little eulogy for past services rendered.”


~The Duc de la Rochefoucauld-Liancourt~

"Any cigar smoker is a friend, because I know how he feels." -Alfred de Musset

"Women are jealous of cigars.......they regard them as a strong rival." William Makepeace Thackeray


Gotta say.........I've noticed this on occasion...

My favorite:

The most futile and disastrous day seems well spent when it is reviewed through the blue, fragrant smoke of a Havana Cigar.
