When they saw me walking down the street smoking a cigar, they'd say, 'Hey, that 14-year-old kid may be going places.' Of course it's also a good prop on the stage ... When you can't think of what you're supposed to say next, you can puff on your cigar until you think of your next line.
George BurnsWhen asked in his late 90s if his doctor knew he still smoked, Burns said, 'No ... he's dead.'
