Famous quotes containing the words coffee and/or legend:

    There has come into existence, chiefly in America, a breed of men who claim to be feminists. They imagine that they have understood “what women want” and that they are capable of giving it to them. They help with the dishes at home and make their own coffee in the office, basking the while in the refulgent consciousness of virtue.... Such men are apt to think of the true male feminists as utterly chauvinistic.
    Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

    A legend is an old man with a cane known for what he used to do. I’m still doing it.
    Miles Davis (1926–1991)
