Once you are hooked, smoking is harder to quit then heroin.

In the movies, Bette Davis lights two cigarettes and hands the second one to James Cagney. It was just so glamorous and romantic.

There's nothing glamorous about being dead.

I talk about acting to students making the transition from high school to UCLA. Kids going into this profession really need to know the reality of it.

Look at any black-and-white movie; everybody is smoking.

My daughter teases me once in a while saying, Remember when you used to be my mother and you had black hair?

When women smoke, it is hard for them to quit because they are so worried about their weight; it's a vanity issue and a mindset.
