David MametWe must have a pie. Stress cannot exist in the presence of a pie.
About This Quote
This quote is a reminder that stress should not exist in the presence of a pie. It’s a reminder that, when we are stressed, we should take time out to sit down and relax. We should eat a piece of pie, either one that we have made or one that someone else has made for us. The idea is that if you are stressed out, you will be happier if you can take some time out to make something for yourself or to enjoy something someone else has made for you.
