    Recreational Coffee Drinkers Should Go To the Back of the Line

    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 the them orders a hazelnut smack-a-cino with cinnamon sprinkles.

    Dave Barry

    Everything Was Laid Out on the Coffee Table

    He wasn't concealing much. It was all out on the coffee table. It just kept going, and we kept finding more. It snowballed into this whole thing.

    Deputy Joshua Moody

    Frederick the Great's Concerns About Soldiers Drinking Coffee

    It is disgusting to notice the increase in the quantity of coffee used by my subjects, and the amount of money that goes out of the country as a consequence. Everybody is using coffee; this must be prevented. His Majesty was brought up on beer, and so were both his ancestors and officers. Many battles have been fought and won by soldiers nourished on beer, and the King does not believe that coffee-drinking soldiers can be relied upon to endure hardships in case of another war.

    Prussia's Frederick the Great (1777)

    The Murphy's Law of Coffee Quotes

    As soon as you sit down to a cup of hot coffee, your boss will ask you to do something which will last until the coffee is cold.

    Murphy's Law

    Coffee Sets the Blood in Motion

    As Brillat-Savarin has correctly observed, coffee sets the blood in motion and stimulates the muscles; it accelerates the digestive processes, chases away sleep, and gives us the capacity to engage a little longer in the exercise of our intellects. It is on this last point, in particular, that I want to add my personal experience to Brillat-Savarin's observations.

    The Mass Marketing of Mediocre Coffee Quotes

    I believe that the American coffee industry is doing itself irreparable harm by mass marketing mediocre coffee at a low price. I think that what is happening today in the coffee business is just a foreshadowing of the eventual indifference of the total American public to the world of coffee drinking.

    Edward Bransten (1969)

    If You're Sleeping You Haven't Had Enough Coffee!

    Sleep is a symptom of coffee deprivation.

    Huge party, from the day we started until we wrapped in Minneapolis. We'd go to coffee in the morning and we became best friends. We were so excited to be in an all-girl film. It was one big shopping spree. They put us in this hotel across from a shopping mall, and we were often late for work.

    Coffee Stronger Than Voodoo Priest and All World Religions

    The voodoo priest and all his powders were as nothing compared to espresso, cappuccino, and mocha, which are stronger than all the religions of the world combined, and perhaps stronger than the human soul itself.

    Mark Helprin, Memoir from Antproof Case (1995)

    Coffee Quotes and Men Who Claim To Be Feminists

    There has come into existence, chiefly in America, a breed of men who claim to be feminists. They imagine that they have understood ‘what women want' and that they are capable of giving it to them. They help with the dishes at home and make their own coffee in the office, basking the while in the refulgent consciousness of virtue. Such men are apt to think of the true male feminists as utterly chauvinistic.

    Germaine Greer
