<<Si je tiens la plume, c'est par amour de ma pelle>>
Raymond Calvel, 1938.  http:prof calvel.free.fr/contenu/travaux_prof.php 

<<Qui sème bon grain, recueille bon pain>>  French version of ''whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap'', KJB, Galatians 6:7.


<<Et enfin j'ai eu la révélation que le pain était beaucoup plus que je n'avais pensé: un symbole complexe ou se croisent des notions paiennes de procréation, des notions religieuses et aussi sexuelles. Que le pain pouvait aussi devenir un materiau d'espression artistique. Un outil politique. Un baromètre social.....>>
Lionel Poilâne, Guide de l'amateur de pain, 1981, 123.
