Dwight Eisenhower gave himself the order.

Quit smoking.

It had been a 38-year habit, and he knew it was time. His health was on the line. His ability to be of service was in jeopardy. So he quit. After 38 years of smoking, he quit—cold turkey.

“The only way to stop is to stop,” Eisenhower would tell an aide, “and I stopped.”
