Good coffee may come from Arabia or India, from the Blue Mountains of Jamaica, or via France with an admixture of chicory; but its flavor and excellence will be derived from daily careful roasting and grinding, a truism universally admitted and habitually disregarded.
~ Lady Jekyll, D.B.E. Do I like my coffee black? There are other colors?
~ Author Unknown You make good coffee . . . You're a slob, but you make good coffee.
~ Cher in Moonstruck Without my morning coffee I'm just like a dried up piece of roast goat.

It's the only thing "real" men do that doesn't seem to threaten their masculinity.

~ Gustave Flaubert (1821-1880) I think we all pray to the first cup of the day. It's a silent prayer, sung while the mind is still foggy and blue. "O Magic Cup," it might go, "carry me above the traffic jam. Keep me civil in the subway. And forgive my employer, as you forgive me. Amen"
~ Stewert Lee Allen I never laugh until I've had my coffee.
