Aleister Crowley Collection Vol. 4 - Writings from Vanity Fair
A CIGAR is like a wife!
Put it to your lips, and light it;
When you’ve learnt to do it right, it
Adds a certain zest to life.
Mind you keep on puffing it,
Or it’s out, and can’t be lit.
Ah, the aroma! Ah, the glow!
Will you have one? Thank you, No.
- Aleister Crowley, Vanity Fair January, 1916
