Incep cu citatul meu preferat:

• If you are cold, tea will warm you.  If you are too heated, it will cool you.  If you are depressed, it will cheer you.  If you are excited, it will calm you.  Gladstone, 1865

Si acum alte cateva pe care le-am gasit si care mi-au placut foarte mult:

• There is a great deal of poetry and fine sentiment in a chest of tea.  Ralph Waldo Emerson, Letters and Social Aims
• Strange how a teapot can represent at the same time the comforts of solitude and the pleasures of company.  Author Unknown
• Tea is a cup of life.  Author Unknown
• If man has no tea in him, he is incapable of understanding truth and beauty.  Japanese Proverb
• Tea is liquid wisdom.  Anonymous
• Drink your tea slowly and reverently, as if it is the axis on which the world earth revolves – slowly, evenly, without rushing toward the future.  Thich Nat Hahn
• Tea…is a religion of the art of life.  Okakura
• The first cup moistens my lips and throat.  The second cup breaks my loneliness.  The third cup searches my barren entrail but to find therein some thousand volumes of odd ideographs.  The fourth cup raises a slight perspiration – all the wrongs of life pass out through my pores.  At the fifth cup I am purified.  The sixth cup calls me to the realms of the immortals.  The seventh cup – ah, but I could take no more!  I only feel the breath of the cool wind that raises in my sleeves.  Where is Elysium?  Let me ride on this sweet breeze and waft away thither.  Lu Tung, “Tea-Drinking”
