4. Declarations on Smoking

“No boy ever began smoking because he liked it, but generally because either he feared being chaffed by the other boys as afraid to smoke, or because he thought that by smoking he would look a great man - when all the time he only looks like a little ass.”
          Lord R. Baden Powel, Founder
          of the Scout Movement. 1900.

“The tobacco industry produces deadly weapons and makes its profits through human sacrifice! - The leaders of tobacco concerns lack all social responsibility!”
          R. F. Kennedy,
          US Minister of Justice. 1967.

“There is no hope of finding a safe cigarette... If reduction of tar and nicotine levels gives some slight gain, it is trivial compared with the benefits from cessation of smoking.”
          Sir George Godber, M.D.
          1979.

“...Should a machine at a workshop emit so much carcinogens as the open fires of innumerable cigarettes do, the workshop would be closed down right away”.

          Antonia C. Novello, M.D.
          US Surgeon General. 1992.

          Simon F. Chapman, B.A., Ph.d.

“Smoking is an advance contract. Those who smoke don't pay now, but will do so 30 to 40 years later, when their health fails. They pay with lung cancer, with obstructive airways disorders, with cardiovascular diseases. One in two smokers pays with their life.”
          LEE Jong-wook, M.D.,  M.P.H.
          WHO Director General. 2006.
