Wood Smoke

Famous quotes containing the words wood and/or smoke:

“Cats seem to go on the principle that it never does any harm to ask for what you want.”
—Joseph Wood Krutch (1893–1970)

“Smoking ... is downright dangerous. Most people who smoke will eventually contract a fatal disease and die. But they don’t brag about it, do they? Most people who ski, play professional football or drive race cars, will not die—at least not in the act—and yet they are the ones with the glamorous images, the expensive equipment and the mythic proportions. Why this should be I cannot say, unless it is simply that the average American does not know a daredevil when he sees one.”
—Fran Lebowitz (b. 1950)
