Cigar Quote by Joseph Conrad

“There are men here and there to whom the whole of life is like an after-dinner hour with a cigar; easy, pleasant, empty, perhaps enlivened by some fable of strife to be forgotten - before the end is told - even if there happens to be any end to it.” quote by Joseph Conrad — Download Open image
