“But indeed I would rather have nothing but tea.”
― Jane Austen, Mansfield Park

“When tea becomes ritual, it takes its place at the heart of our ability to see greatness in small things. Where is beauty to be found? In great things that, like everything else, are doomed to die, or in small things that aspire to nothing, yet know how to set a jewel of infinity in a single moment?”
― Muriel Barbery, The Elegance of the Hedgehog

“There is something in the nature of tea that leads us into a world of quiet contemplation of life.”
― Lin Yutang, The Importance of Living

“Tea ... is a religion of the art of life.”
― Kakuzō Okakura, The Book of Tea
