“It is told of the holy Chida that he loved smelling tobacco. Once, when visiting a certain town, he had left his tobacco at his dinner host and wanted it in middle of the night. So, he trudged in the cold to his earlier host and awoke him to retrieve his tobacco. In the morning, he considered how he had allowed his base urges to rouse someone from his sleep and he regretted his actions. Despite how much he enjoyed his habit, he immediately accepted upon himself to never use smelling tobaccos again for this impulse had led him to momentarily be inconsiderate of others. He realized that his desires were too powerful and needed to be entirely eradicated.” ~ Rav Menachem Azolai as translated by Dov Elias
