“The pleasures of not smoking are greater than the pleasures of smoking. Tobacco produces more tension than it relieves. It blunts the senses of smell and taste and greatly increases the unpleasantness of the hangover. It reduces the capacity for physical effort It diminishes the visual acuity of the car driver It increases the chance of post-anaesthetic chest infection. Given any initial weakness, it may rot the lungs, the arurics, and ihe stomach.”—Stephen Tavlor, B.Sc., M.D, M.R.C.I*.
