I started walking rather than driving to get my coffee. I liked it so much, I do it for 45 minutes every day… You know those annoying people who are like, ‘If I don’t work out I feel… ugh’? I might be becoming one of those people. – Ross Mathews
I usually get up between 7 A.M. and 8 A.M., have coffee, and go right to work. It’s really important not to get sidetracked in the morning so I’m still in that dreamy state for my writing. – Rachel Kushner
They say you can smoke 400 cigs a day and drink 20 cups of coffee, but you can’t have a line or a drink again. – Ron Wood
When I was a boy, I read a terrible article in a big weekly American magazine called the ‘Saturday Evening Post.’ In the middle of this family magazine on my parent’s coffee table was an article about this family that was camping, and they were all mauled by a grizzly bear in their sleeping bags. – Robert Englund
Machismo requires Latin blood. I’d say I never experienced machismo up close until I worked in a French office; the typical Wall Street gunner has the soul of a coffee filter in comparison. – Rosecrans Baldwin
Sweating the small stuff is important in boxing and life. On a movie, we have production assistants who’re 18 and 19 years old. If someone asks you for a cup of coffee, and you bring them a cup of coffee that’s cold, I make a big deal of that. I make a really, really big deal of that. You have to pay attention to details. – Peter Berg
I get up at sunrise. I’m a Buddhist, so I chant in the morning. My wife and I sit and have coffee together, but then it’s list-making time. I have carpentry projects. We have roads we keep in repair. It’s not back-breaking, but it’s certainly aerobic and mildly strenuous. – Patrick Duffy
I’m such an antsy type of person. I can’t write in a room without other people around. I write in coffee shops. – Paul Haggis
I usually get up around 6 A.M. It takes me a while to get going. In our household, I am the first one up. I usually make coffee for myself, draw a bath and have a big soak. I read in the bath. – Rick Bayless
Americans are making coffee a bigger part of their lives, expanding attitudes and behaviors that are driving new levels of consumption. – Robert Nelson
Language and words for psychopaths are only word deep; there is no emotional colouring behind it. A psychopath can use a word like, ‘I love you’ but it means nothing more to him than if he said, ‘I’ll have a cup of coffee.’ – Robert D. Hare
I’ve done the best I can with the morning show. I made it a morning show. We have the coffee cup, you have the morning papers, you know, it’s got that feel to it, that’s what I wanted. – Regis Philbin
I think of myself as naturally idle. The trouble is, the ‘nothing’ that I do every day is not really nothing. I potter. I muck about with emails, I make coffee, I fiddle with my computer to make sure that the book I haven’t started writing is perfectly synced across all platforms and devices. – Robert Webb
All coffee shops now have WiFi. Why bring a book when you could be wittily attacking some idiot columnist on Twitter, or responding to your date requests, or posting a picture of your foot? All of that is more gripping and immediate and social than books. – Russell Smith
The goal isn’t to be successful; it’s to be happy. And so it doesn’t matter if I’m doing things in New York or teaching high school or I drop it altogether and sell coffee. The goal is to be happy, and people and relationships are what makes you happy. – Susan Egan
After college, I went to San Francisco and worked as a secretary in a reinsurance company. That was a pretty dismal job. It was a real small place. Guys would come in, and they’d sort of stick out their arms like wings so I could take their coats off. They’d tell me, ‘Two,’ and I’d put two lumps of sugar in their coffee. – William T. Vollmann
It seems to me that trying to live without friends is like milking a bear to get cream for your morning coffee. It is a whole lot of trouble, and then not worth much after you get it. – Zora Neale Hurston
Listen, I didn’t know how to make coffee when I came to the United States. Because in Colombia the maids do it. – Sofia Vergara
In order to build a career and to be successful, one has to be determined. One has to be ambitious. I much prefer to drink coffee, listen to music, and to paint when I feel like it. – Saul Leiter
Any partying I did, I did at home. I didn’t want to be in the spotlight… There’s an easy way to get away from the paparazzi; they’re not that difficult to hide from and you don’t need to go out for coffee every five minutes. – Valerie Bertinelli
It’s quite amazing to me, as I walk around a supermarket or a health food shop, to observe the number of Fairtrade choices: not just staples such as coffee, tea, fresh fruits and rice, but cocoa and chocolate, herbs and spices, honey, ice cream, and jams. – Sheherazade Goldsmith
I sit in places like Costa Coffee in Banstead and write rubbish. I need a deadline. I think about the 44 tour dates and keep imagining standing in front of all these people. Then every day I write 15 jokes minimum. – Tim Vine
