en This new standard is like telling a two-pack-a-day smoker to cut out one cigarette a day.

en It's a bit like telling a three-pack-a-day smoker to give up one cigarette a day.

en I sometimes look at myself, I'm sitting with a biro and a cigarette packet, desperately scrawling dribble on it. And sometimes I put down my fag pack and think, what am I, a grown man, doing at this hour of the night? Then I banish that thought, pick the fag pack up again.

en I wish there wasn't a ban because it's such a hassle. A regular smoker wants a cigarette before bed, and at other times when it's a pain in the ass to drop what you're doing to go outside.

en When I think of Joe in the dressing room, it's always with a cup of coffee and a cigarette. He was a heavy smoker. He was a great ball player ... Joe always wanted to win. He was great on the field and off it.

en Tragically, one out of four Americans smoke. That means in a family of four, either the father or mother, or both, are smokers endangering their lives as well as their loved ones' lives and future. Sadly, an average pack-a-day smoker spends over $1,500 a year on their cigarettes alone, and that doesn't include all other related costs. A Duke University study puts the true cost of lifetime smoking at $40 a pack - money that could be used to provide food, education, healthcare and fun activities for their family.

en A smoker applying for life assurance will find themselves facing almost double the premium of a non-smoker. Add that to the price of the cigarettes and the cost of smoking plainly threatens your wealth – not just your health.

en The evidence is clear that increasing the price of cigarettes is one of the most effective ways to reduce smoking, especially among children and pregnant women. Preliminary evidence confirms that every state that has significantly increased its cigarette tax in recent years has enjoyed substantial increases in revenue, even while reducing cigarette sales. Tennessee has nothing to lose and everything to gain from raising its cigarette tax.

en I think that the smoker has just as much rights as the non-smoker.

en It's similar to the increase in female cigarette smoking when cigarette companies began to market cigarettes towards women.

en After that, what did he do? This man is so mean that instead of helping his wife, who is bleeding to death, he sits down on his bed, lights a cigarette, smokes a cigarette and sets his house on fire.

en What we've seen is that he went ahead of the pack very early in his career. There was an element of catching up by other players. He raised the standard. And now, he seems to be stepping forward again. We'll see if the others step up to the challenge.

en It has set a whole new standard. Never before were we able to tell our patients that you could actually see better after therapy. In the past, we were always telling our patients that the treatment just slowed down the progression of vision loss, but now we have a new standard. We no longer will accept vision loss.
