![“[There's a] point where you have to leave the dough alone. It's silly to anthropomorphize bread, but I love the fact that it needs to sit quietly, to retreat from touch and noise and drama, in order to evolve. I have to admit, I often feel that way myself.” quote by Jodi Picoult](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/b74/jodi-picoult-45_bread_there-s-a-point-where-you-have-to-leave_247062.jpg)
