There was only one thing I wanted: to be left alone, without too many demands upon my person, so that for a few moments each day I might be allowed to assuage my hunger.

    Freedom and freedom from hunger need not be mutually exclusive. Revenge and cruelty threaten the former; greed threatens the latter.
