Gertrude Stein on Coffee

“Smith Coffee, Eden Prairie, MN (photo by m.a.h. hinton)

“Coffee gives you time to think. It’s a lot more than just a drink; it’s something happening. Not as in hip, but like an event, a place to be, but not like a location, but like somewhere within yourself. It gives you time, but not actual hours or minutes, but a chance to be, like be yourself, and have a second cup.” — Gertrude Stein
