Coffee quote

Only thing worse than bad coffee is bad cold coffee.

JERRY TRAVIS

The Black Widow


If you are under the age of 30, you may not remember when coffee was only scooped out of a can, dripped from a vending machine or from a lukewarm stainless steel pot in an office break room, and served in a Styrofoam cup or a diner mug. Or when, at least in the United States, coffee was mostly inhaled for its caffeine jolt rather than savored for its exotic flavors, and the only customizations were cream and sugar.

The coffee, when he tried it, was strong almost to the point of being unbearable, but not quite. In short, it was divine.

The drinking of coffee is an absolute sin! Our Glorious Prophet did not partake of coffee because he knew it dulled the intellect, caused ulcers, hernia and sterility; he understood that coffee was nothing but the Devil's ruse.

The powers of a man's mind are directly proportioned to the quantity of coffee he drinks.

SIR JAMES MACKINTOSH

attributed, Chicken Soup for the Coffee Lover's Soul


Coffee is the common man's gold, and like gold,
it brings to every man the feeling of luxury and nobility.
Where coffee is served, there is
grace and splendor and friendship and happiness.
All cares vanish as the coffee cup is raised to the lips.

SHEIKH ABD-AL-KADIR

In Praise of Coffee


While it is true that even bad coffee is better than none, the difference between good and bad is the same as between one cent and ten thousand.

An Unashamed Defense of Coffee


The aroma of coffee is a return to and a bringing back of first things because it is the offspring of the primordial. It's a journey, begun thousands of years ago, that still goes on.

The Early Sessions


The next time you walk by a coffee shop, peer inside. Take in the variety of people in line or seated. Men and women in business attire. Parents with strollers. College students studying. High school kids joking. Couples deep in conversation. Retired folks reading newspapers and talking politics. And, of course, scores of people sitting in front of laptops searching, downloading, listening, reading and writing books, blogs, business plans, résumés, letters, e-mails, instant messages, texts ... whatever their hearts desire. Consider how many of those people furiously clicking away on keyboards and scribbling ideas on napkins might be working to create the next Google, Alibaba, or Facebook, or composing a novel or a piece of music. Maybe they're falling in love with someone sitting next to them. Or making a friend.
