| As an example to others, and not that I
care for moderation myself, it has always been my rule never to smoke when
asleep and never to refrain when awake. - 70th birthday speech |

 Illustration from KANSAS CITY STAR, November 25, 1897 |
...when they used to tell me I would shorten my life ten years by smoking,
they little knew the devotee they were wasting their puerile word upon --
they little knew how trivial and valueless I would regard a decade that
had no smoking in it! - letter to Joseph Twichell, 19 Dec 1870 |
