"The cigarette is known to be an enemy of scholarship, of culture, of morals, of health and vigor, and yet it is tolerated, even encouraged. The millions of cigarettes now being fired at our soldiers will...hit its mark and do its mischief. More American soldiers will be damaged by the cigarette than by German bullets" (Tate 82-86).
This is true enough for smoking can only bring temporary happiness and enjoyment. Abstaining from doing is the best way for one to have complete contentment in life. There are lots of things that one can put his attention to but for me, I would rather spend it with my family and friends than to spend my money, time and energy with non-sense activities just like cigarette smoking. When you meet it along the way, learn how to say no. Life is worth a living so better enjoy and make the most out of it.
