Quote by: Emily Flim

When her grandchildren would whine with words resembling 'I'm hungry', my Oma would tenderly correct us with 'No, you feel like eating' which to me seemed be the same thing. Oma had survived Amsterdam during WW1 and truly knew what hunger was. It is the extremes in life which reveal to a person the difference between desire and necessity; wants and needs. It is the extremes of life which build up resentment towards those ignorant or innocent of knowing the difference.
