Since this is International Women's Day, I was looking for quotes from influential women in the film industry. Anita Loos was one of the pioneers of film, starting in the silent era. Apparently, coffee helped fuel her success.

[From her 1977 book "Cast of Thousands"[ I can never take for granted the euphoria produced by a cup of coffee. I'm grateful every day that it isn't banned as a drug, that I don't have to buy it from a pusher, that its cost is minimal and there's no need to increase the intake. I can count on its stimulation 365 mornings every year. And thanks to the magic in a cup of coffee, I'm able to plunge into a whole day's cheerful thinking.
