Cigar/composition

Famous quotes containing the words cigar and/or composition:

    A woman is only a woman, but a good cigar is a smoke.
    Jo Swerling (b. 1897)

    Boswell, when he speaks of his Life of Johnson, calls it my magnum opus, but it may more properly be called his opera, for it is truly a composition founded on a true story, in which there is a hero with a number of subordinate characters, and an alternate succession of recitative and airs of various tone and effect, all however in delightful animation.
    James Boswell (1740–1795)
