"Almost all the world is natural chemicals, so it really makes you re-think everything. A cup of coffee is filled with chemicals. They've identified a thousand chemicals in a cup of coffee. But we only found 22 that have been tested in animal cancer tests out of this thousand. And of those, 17 are carcinogens. There are ten milligrams of known carcinogens in a cup of coffee and thats more carcinogens than you're likely to get from pesticide residues for a year!"

"إن العالم بأسره تقريباً يتكون من مواد كيميائية طبيعية، وهذا يدفعك حقاً لإعادة التفكير في كل شيء. فكوب القهوة مليء بالمواد الكيميائية؛ لقد حددوا ألف مادة كيميائية في كوب واحد من القهوة. لكننا لم نجد سوى 22 منها خضعت لاختبارات السرطان على الحيوانات من بين هذه الألف. ومن تلك الاثنتين والعشرين، هناك 17 مادة مسرطنة. يوجد عشرة ملليجرامات من المواد المسرطنة المعروفة في كوب القهوة، وهذا أكثر مما قد تحصل عليه من بقايا المبيدات الحشرية على مدار عام كامل!"
