Hunger Relief Week

Famous quotes containing the words hunger, relief and/or week:

“As regards the celebrated “struggle for life,” it seems to me for the present to have been rather asserted than proved. It does occur, but as the exception; the general aspect of life is not hunger and distress, but rather wealth, luxury, even absurd prodigality—where there is a struggle it is a struggle for power.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“There is a certain relief in change, even though it be from bad to worse; as I have found in travelling in a stage- coach, that it is often a comfort to shift one’s position and be bruised in a new place.”
—Washington Irving (1783–1859)

“Bath twice a day to be really clean, once a day to be passably clean, once a week to avoid being a public menace.”
—Anthony Burgess (b. 1917)
