Smoking Twain, 1870

“…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!”

– Mark Twain -in a letter to Joseph Twichell, Dec 19, 1870
