„We are planning on inviting a couple from our town who spent two years volunteering in Guatemala and are now importing the coffee from the people they helped and selling it in town. If they can come, it would be a tremendous boost to our presentation.We plan on serving samples of FT coffee in espresso cups. We hope to lure people by the coffee and hope to get them interested. We will postpone the presentation one week in case of rain.“

„At age 14, while working in my dad's retail store, I was already making a serious effort to convert 80-year-old ladies to freshly roasted Guatemala Maragogype. ("Ma'am, I can recommend a freshly roasted, very mild and mellow after-dinner, low-caffeine coffee that will make you sleep like a nightingale.")“
