Without my morning coffee
I'm just like a dried up
piece of roast goat.
Johann Sebastian Bach
Coffee it is best to buy by the bag,
as it improves by keeping. Let it hang
in the bag, in a dry place, and it
loses its rank smell and taste.
Catharine E. Beecher
I put instant coffee in a
microwave and almost
went back in time.
Steven Wright
If this is coffee, please bring me
some tea; if this is tea, please
bring me some coffee.

Coffee as drunk in England, debilitates
the stomach, and produces a slight
nausea ... it is usually made from bad
coffee, served out tepid and muddy,
and drowned in a deluge of water.

Coffee: Induces wit. Good only if
it comes through Havre. After a big
dinner party it is taken standing up.
Take it without sugar -- very swank:
gives the impression you have
lived in the East.

Coffee makes us severe, and
grave, and philosophical.
Jonathan Swift
As soon as coffee is in your stomach,
there is a general commotion. Ideas
begin to move...similes arise, the paper

ceases to be a struggle.
Honor de Balzac
Only Irish coffee provides in a
single glass all four essential food
groups: alcohol, caffeine,
sugar, and fat.
Alex Levine
Coffee, though a useful medicine,
if drunk constantly will at length
induce a decay of health ,
and hectic fever.
Jesse Torrey
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.
