Hunger Quotes

Scarlett (about her dream):"Oh, Rhett, it's awful to be hungry."

As God is my witness, as God is my witness, the Yankees aren’t going to lick me. I’m going to live through this, and when it’s over, I’m never going to be hungry again. No, nor any of my folks. If I have to steal or kill—as God is my witness, I’m never going to be hungry again.

Every sentient creature on this earth when it falls into want, poverty, and misfortune usually cleaves to its own because it's easier to survive the bad times in a group helping one another, but you humans you just wait for a chance to make money from other people’s mishaps. When there’s hunger you don’t share out your food you just devour the weakest ones. This practice works among wolves since it lets the healthiest and strongest individuals survive but amongst sentient races such selection usually allows the biggest bastards to survive and dominate the rest. Come to your own coclusions and make your own predictions.

"Oh! It always is nearly seven."

In her experience pain and fear did not dull physical hunger; in her experience the taking of food dulled pain. She would have beeh outraged if a doctor had tried to sedate her with a drug, but coffee and a crust of bread were another matter; she came, of course, from a more primitive culture.
