From King James I of England - declared smoking to be:
'A custome lothsome to the eye, hatefull to the Nose, harmefull to the braine, dangerous to the Lungs, and in the blacke stinking fume thereof, neerest resembling the horrible Stigian smoke of the pit that is bottomelesse'.
Taken from the BMJ 21/5/16, which in turn, was taken from NEJM.
