[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. ↗

You can use all the quantitative data you can get, but you still have to distrust it and use your own intelligence and judgment. ↗
