"Thoughts lead on to purposes; purposes go forth in action; actions form habits; habits decide character; and character fixes our destiny."
Tryon Edwards
"If an addict who has been completely cured starts smoking again he no longer experiences the discomfort of his first addiction. There exists, therefore, outside alkaloids and habit, a sense for opium, an intangible habit which lives on, despite the recasting of the organism. The dead drug leaves a ghost behind. At certain hours it haunts the house."
Jean Cocteau
"Better shun the bait than struggle in the snare."
John Dryden
"Don't do drugs because if you do drugs you'll go to prison, and drugs are really expensive in prison."
John Hardwick
"The unfortunate thing about this world is that good habits are so much easier to give up than bad ones."
Somerset Maugham

Francois Duc de La Rochefoucauld
"Not being able to govern events, I govern myself."
Michel de Montaigne
"A man’s fortune has its form given to it by his habits."

"Self-respect is the root of discipline: The sense of dignity grows with the ability to say no to oneself."
Abraham Joshua Heschel
"It's all right letting yourself go, as long as you can get yourself back."
