“I am a smoker, I'm ashamed to say. I had given it up for many years, then picked it up again. It's a horrible habit. I struggle with myself all the time. And I love to smoke. An actor has to be very, very careful, as one of the most wonderful props - and actors love props - is a cigarette. There's so much to do with it: you can bring it up to your face, play with the smoke. It's just the greatest - ever since I was 16 and in acting school in England, I've been playing around with cigarettes.”
![“We have never been big smokers, neither Cheech [Marine] nor I. We were too creative, and we had a lot to do. We are actors and to be honest, I am the type of person that can reference a thought or a smell and get high.” quote by Tommy Chong](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/b01/tommy-chong-4039_actors_we-have-never-been-big-smokers-neither-c_1992136.jpg)
![“It [smoking] was like an aphrodisiac. Actors would say let's have another cigarette on that great scenes, and they'd blow smoke in each other's face.” quote by Chris Matthews](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/d3f/chris-matthews-1682_actors_it-smoking-was-like-an-aphrodisiac-actor_291673.jpg)
