Coffee is a great power in my life;
I have observed its effects on an epic scale.
Many people claim coffee inspires them, but, as everybody knows, coffee only makes boring people even more boring.
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.
Coffee changes over time.
Rossini has personally experienced some of these effects
as, of course, have I.
"Coffee," Rossini told me,
"is an affair of fifteen or twenty days;
just the right amount of time, fortunately, to write an opera."
Honore de Balzac
