Coffee is the best thing to douse the sunrise with.
~Drew Sirtors
A morning without coffee is like sleep.
~Author Unknown
Sleep is a symptom of caffeine deprivation.
~Author Unknown
In Seattle you haven't had enough coffee until you can thread a sewing machine while it's running.
~Jeff Bezos
Coffee leads men to trifle away their time, scald their chops, and spend their money, all for a little base, black, thick, nasty, bitter, stinking nauseous puddle water.
~The Women's Petition Against Coffee, 1674
It is inhumane, in my opinion, to force people who have a genuine medical need for coffee to wait in line behind people who apparently view it as some kind of recreational activity. I bet this kind of thing does not happen to heroin addicts. I bet that when serious heroin addicts go to purchase their heroin, they do not tolerate waiting in line while some dilettante in front of them orders a hazelnut smack-a-cino with cinnamon sprinkles.
~Dave Barry
It is the duty of all papas and mammas to forbid their children to drink coffee, unless they wish to have little dried-up machines, stunted and old at the age of twenty....I once saw a man in London, in Leicester Square, who had been crippled by immoderate indulgence in coffee; he was no longer in any pain, having grown accustomed to his condition, and had cut himself down to five or six cups a day.
~Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin
It's just like when you've got some coffee that's too black, which means it's too strong. What do you do? You integrate it with cream, you make it weak. But if you pour too much cream in it, you won't even know you ever had coffee. It used to be hot, it becomes cool. It used to be strong, it becomes weak. It used to wake you up, now it puts you to sleep.
~Malcolm X
Do you want me to prepare a hypospray so you can absorb the caffeine more directly?
~Neelix (Star Trek: Voyager Think Tank)
The coffee is prepared in such a way that it makes those who drink it witty: at least there is not a single soul who, on quitting the house, does not believe himself four times wittier than when he entered it.
~Charles de Secondat Montesquieu
