“I drink a lot of coffee before I go to sleep so I can dream faster”
“I drink a lot of coffee before I go to sleep so I can dream faster” is a coffee saying that has been printed on many images. “I drink a lot of coffee before I go to sleep. So I can dream fast” and “I drink a lot of coffee before I go to bed so I can dream faster” are variations.
The film Coffee and Cigarettes (2003) by independent film director Jim Jarmusch has 11 short stories. In the first, “Strange to Meet You,” Steven Wright tells Roberto Benigni:
“I drink a lot of coffee before I go to sleep so I can dream faster. I can dream like when they put a camera on the Indy 500… when they put a camera in the car, and it’s just whipping by like that. Dream after dream after dream after dream. People ask me the next day, ‘What did you dream about?’ I say, ‘I don’t have time. I don’t have time to tell you this.’”
In the segment “Delirium,” GZA tells Bill Murray:
“You know before I gave that up I used to drink it every night every single night up until it was time to go to sleep just to make me dream faster you know like when they flashed those cameras on those Indy 500 cars they just that’s how my dreams were just whizzing by.”
Wikipedia: Coffee and Cigarettes

Plot segments
The eleven segments that make up the film are as follows:
Strange to Meet You
This is the original 1986 short Coffee and Cigarettes with Roberto Benigni and Steven Wright having a conversation about coffee and cigarettes. Steven tells Roberto about his coffee ideas, such as freezing it into “caffeine Popsicles” for kids, and how he likes to drink coffee right before he goes to sleep so he can dream faster “like a camera on those Indy 500 cars”. Roberto does not understand anything he says but is entertained to listen. They experiment with switching chairs, but decide to switch back again. Steven suddenly remembers he has a dentist appointment that he is afraid to go to, but has to. Roberto happily volunteers and goes instead of him.
(...)
Delirium
Hip-hop artists (and cousins) GZA and RZA of the Wu-Tang Clan drink naturally caffeine-free herbal tea and have a conversation with the waiter, Bill Murray, about the dangers of caffeine and nicotine. During this conversation, GZA makes a reference to how he would drink much coffee before going to bed so his dreams would “whip by” similar to the camera-shots at the Indy 500, very similar to the same reference that Steven Wright did in the first segment. Murray requests that GZA and RZA keep his identity secret, while GZA and RZA inform Murray about nontraditional methods to relieve his smoker’s hack.
