"You know what I'm going to do?" she says to me at long last. Without waiting for a reply, she says, "I'm going to make myself a cup of coffee, then go sit out on the back porch and spend the rest of the night thinking of new ways to ask, and answer, 'What is the meaning of life?'"
Christopher Phillip, Socrates Cafe (New York: W.W. Norton, 2001)
No one can understand the truth until he drinks of coffee's frothy goodness.

Pythagoras of Samos never had a latte; Socrates never sipped a macchiato; and Aristotle thought great thoughts, but never qualified a red eye. Anne Conway may have been familiar with coffee, but was probably not an imbiber, because during her lifetime coffee was still relegated to the English apothecary as an exotic headace remedy. From this we understand that the philosopher Novartis's idea for Excedrin was not without precedent.
