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

My sister and I are both diagnosed with second-hand smoke syndromes. We have never smoked, but we grew up with second-hand smoke our entire lives.

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

There is no cure for emphysema, but you can start treating it and have a better quality of life.

My mom started smoking when she was 11. She went to the hill next door to try her first cigarette. She set the entire hill on fire, but it didn't deter her.

My grandmother was a teacher, my sister was a teacher, my daughter was a teacher and is now a superintendent in northern California, and my son-in-law is a high school principal. I am surrounded.

I started acting when I was 10, doing musical theater. I was a brunette at that time. I was always cast in all the exotic parts.
