How do you feel about this quote philosophically? Is it harmful consumerism or a way to increase happiness?

I dont need to waste money on clothes I wont wear, sleep in the middle of my job, or gain a caffeine addiction, to be happy. My compulsive masturbation habit does the job just fine.

Problem is, coffee is terrible for you. Not much of a 'present'.

Goethe said something somewhat similar. I don't think it should be about spending money, more just living an ennobled existence.

In the context of the show it was a line meant to promote consumerism, whether harmful or not. For those who have never seen Twin Peaks it's an older show so there is a lot of what I guess use to be subtle product placement but seems weird when viewed in modern times; it's like you have constant scenes of smoking cigs and every once in a while the guy in OP pic (FBI agent) will go on a mini rant about how much he loves pie and coffee. In this particular scene he and the local detective are about to go investigate something but he pulls him aside to have more coffee and pie

you seem (like most of our peers on this miserable site) trapped in your isms when viewing the world, this quote if anything is merely an affirmation of its the little things in life that make the difference. Life is what you make it and you'd do well to learn to enjoy it from time to time.

It's from Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship. Note that it is said by a character that Goethe doesn't seem to like.

Product placement involves inserting brands into shows, which Twin Peaks does not do. There was no coffee or pie consortium that was paying to have Cooper enjoy coffee and pie; it was just a character trait. Similar to Star Trek's Picard drinking earl grey tea.
