Summary

This quote humorously highlights a common sentiment among coffee drinkers. It suggests that the speaker relies on coffee to feel awake or alert, emphasizing their connection to the beverage. By using the term "illusion," it implies that coffee's effect is temporary and perhaps not a true solution to fatigue or drowsiness. The quote captures the way coffee is often perceived as a key factor in starting the day or boosting energy levels, even if its impact may be subjective or short-lived.
