Hookah Quotes

[socr4life22]

Anyone know of a good site that has good hookah quotations? something along the lines of txhookahman's quote?

Hahaha. I think it's probably the best one out there.



"Smoking a hookah is nothing like smoking a cigarette...cigarettes are for nervous people, competitive people, people on the run...when you smoke a hooka, you have time to think. It teaches you patience and tolerance, and gives you an appreciation of good company."

-Ismet Ertep


I love this quote. It's also a good way to explain hookah to people.

Here's a poem from a book called "Over the Hookah; The Tales of a Talkative Doctor" by G. Frank Lydston - I don't think I've posted it before, but perhaps I have. The book itself has not much at all that actually relates to hookah, but this poem is great:

"
Oh! hookah of the magic bowl,
Thou dost bring me greatest pleasure,
Who likes not thee, hath not a soul,
And can know of joy no measure.

Thy fragrance brings me visions bright--
Dispels the shadows of the night.
"

Also, there's one devoted to tobacco (scientific name: nicotiana):

"
Nicotiana, goddess of my dreams,
Do thou assume thy heavenly throne--
Oh, guide me gently by peaceful streams
And through fair fields which thou alone
Dost know, O sovereign queen of mine,
And make my musing fair--devine.
"
