There's no handbook for PARENTING. So you walk a very fine LINE as a parent because you are civilizing these RAW things. They will tip the coffee over and finger-paint on the table. At some point, you have to SAY, 'We're gonna have to clean that up because you don't paint with coffee on a table.'

When I was a KID, I LOVED having muffins and cupcakes and I STILL LIKE them with COFFEE.

My TASTE in coffee has GOT better with age, and so has my taste in MUSIC.

My FATHER's diner, the Jefferson COFFEE Shop, was a SIMPLE, 27-seat affair in Washington D.C., open for BREAKFAST and lunch - coffee and eggs in the MORNING, cold cuts and burgers in the afternoon.

I'm the KING of napping. I can NAP and I snore. Then I wake up, GO to the toilet, wash my FACE, have a coffee and it's like a brand new day.

You don't need COFFEE. NOBODY needs coffee. You can GET ALONG without it.

I'm a traditionalist, so for me, BLACK COFFEE is COOL.

I'm a PRETENTIOUS COFFEE SNOB, and I love Starbucks. Gotta have my skim latte.

I think we are living in a time where the consumer has lots of CHOICES, WHETHER it's coffee, NEWSPAPERS or whatever it is. And there is parity in the MARKET place, and as a result of that, the consumer is beginning to make DECISIONS, not just on what things cost and the convenience of it.

To me, the SMELL of fresh-made COFFEE is one of the GREATEST INVENTIONS.

I am a COFFEE FANATIC. Once you GO to PROPER coffee, you can't go BACK. You cannot go back.

When you're doing a medieval show like 'Pillars,' it STARTS off a BIT like a school play. You're all in funny costumes; you've had your coffee, and you say, 'Good morning'. Then you GO on set and, if you've got good actors and directors, it TAKES on a life of its own.

I GOT FIRED for GIVING coffee away. It was just my regulars. I'd say, 'Don't worry about it,' and they'd put down a dollar tip. TECHNICALLY, I was stealing. Ethically, I was boosting morale!

I usually get up early because I like the quiet TIME in the morning to have my coffee, and I LOOK at the news of the day, and give myself a chance to WAKE up.
