Coffee has functions such as excitement and stomach-invigorating. Many celebrities are inextricably bound to coffee.

But incredibly, he wrote an one-act musical comedy, the Coffee Chorus, about an elderly father who persuaded his daughter to quit drinking coffee.

The great French writer Ambalzac drinks a lot of coffee every day. He thinks coffee is good for inspiration. He usually goes to bed at 6 p.m., sleeps until 12:00 at night, then gets up, writes for 12 hours, and drinks coffee non-stop in the process of writing. "once the coffee gets into the stomach and intestines, the whole body begins to boil," he said. "the mind is in position, like a company of a great army that begins to fight on the battlefield."

French Emperor Napoleon (1769-1821), who loved coffee all his life, described the feeling of drinking coffee as "a considerable amount of espresso excites me and gives me warmth and extraordinary strength."

King Friedrich II of Prussia (1712-1785) had a habit of drinking coffee, but what was different was that he drank coffee without water and mixed with champagne.

American General Wu Grant (1822-1885) was used to eating fresh vinegar juice and cucumbers for breakfast, followed by a large cup of espresso every day.

James Mackintosh, a British philosopher and political activist, is passionate about coffee. He believes that a person's intelligence is proportional to the amount of coffee he drinks.

The outstanding French diplomat Talleran (1754-1838) once said: "the best coffee should be black as the devil, hot as hell, pure as an angel, sweet as love."

Voltaire, an outstanding French thinker (1694-1778), drank a lot of coffee even in his later years. It is said that he can drink up to 50 cups of coffee a day. Someone once told him that coffee is a chronic poison. He has been drinking it for 65 years and is still alive. In the end, Voltaire lived to be 84.

Bofentnell, a French enlightenment activist (1657-1757), loved coffee all his life. When he lived to be a hundred years old, an old neighbor who was only two years younger than him joked to him, "Sir, you and I have lived in the world for so long. Maybe death has forgotten us." He replied, "Shh, keep your voice down, you'd better let death stop thinking about us."

King Louis XV of France, who was also a coffee fan and liked to cook it himself, asked the gardener to plant some coffee trees in the garden and harvest six pounds of coffee beans a year. These coffee beans are reserved for self-cooking.

However, some celebrities have banned coffee. In 1524, the religious judge of Mecca ordered the closure of all Mecca cafes in order to avoid riots. In 1570, King Amarat III of Turkey treated a ban on coffee like a ban on alcohol among devout Muslims and ordered the closure of all cafes in Constantinople. In addition, King Gustav III of Switzerland (1746-1792) also believed that coffee was a drug and banned it. Even in the nineteenth century, the king of Switzerland made such a decision many times.
