“M.F.K. Fisher says it well: There is a communion of more than our bodies when bread is broken and wine drunk. It’s like religion. If you have a glass of water and a crust of bread with someone and you really share it, it is much more than just bread and water. I really believe that. Breaking bread is a simile for sharing bread ... you cannot swallow if you are angry or hateful. You choke a bit ... it’s all very betraying, how we eat.”

“To speak of the table’s role in our formation is rather to acknowledge its intimate daily-ness and therefore its power.”
