"What
can one do to avoid taking bread for granted, to avoid becoming indifferent
to its beauty and flavor? For a start, one should eat only good
bread. It should be tasted as one would taste a fine wine.
Finally one should share it. We have learned to see in bread an instrument
of community among men."
