Mandatory Cigar Quotes Post

It’s Valentine’s Day, and we’re fresh out of ideas for quasi-romantic cigar-related posts. That’s why I’m going to list a bunch of our favorite cigar quotes, including some that could be construed as Valentine’s Day-related. So here they are, in no particular order:

“If I cannot smoke cigars in Heaven, I shall not go.” –Mark Twain

“Fresh air makes me throw up. I can’t handle it. I’d rather be around three De Nobili cigars blowing in my face all night.” –Frank Sinatra

“Happiness? A good cigar, a good meal, a good cigar and a good woman – or a bad woman; it depends on how much happiness you can handle.” –George F. Burns

“I’ve got a great cigar collection – it’s actually not a collection, because that would imply I wasn’t going to smoke every last one of ’em.” –Ron White

“I have made it a rule never to smoke more that one cigar at a time.” –Mark Twain

“A smoke in times of rest is a great companion to the solitary soldier.” –Ernesto “Che” Guevara

“I just smoked a Cohiba the other day. It was great. You have to appreciate everything that cigar is.” –Daisy Fuentes

“Love is an exploding cigar we willingly smoke.” –Lynda Barry

“When I get a chance to play golf or go on a boat with good people, take the boat out and put some lobsters on the grill, get the ice-cold beer and the cigars – that’s heaven here on earth.” –Bernie Mac

“Why pay $100 on a therapy session when you can spend $25 on a cigar? Whatever it is will come back; so what, smoke another one.” –Raul Julia

“You should hurry up and acquire the cigar habit. It’s one of the major happinesses. And so much more lasting than love, so much less costly in emotional wear and tear.” –Aldous Huxley

And my personal all-time favorite…

“I drink a great deal. I sleep a little, and I smoke cigar after cigar. That is why I am in two-hundred-percent form.” –Winston Churchill

I hope you’ve enjoyed these cigar quotes as much as I enjoyed finding them. For the Sinatra quote, imagine Phil Hartman as Frank Sinatra saying that fresh air makes him throw up. Anyway, smoke lots and have a happy Valentine’s Day.
