But in some cases you shouldn't. If you only have a few days to live due to some other condition, you might as well enjoy those last few days to their fullest by continuing with all the vices you can. To quit or not is a serious question and the circumstances (and your own personal preferences) should be your guide. "never quit" is too rigid.
