“The fashion of liking Racine will pass away like that of coffee.”
Marie de Rabutin-Chantal, marquise de Sévigné (1626–1696) French noble
La mode d'aimer Racine passera comme la mode du café.
According to Voltaire, Letters (Jan. 29, 1690), who connected two remarks of hers to make the phrase; one from a letter March 16, 1679, the other, March 10, 1672. La Harpe reduced the mot to "Racine passera comme le café?"
