Quote #10
Why did every adult send kids away from the table? Maybe because nobody sent them to bed hungry. Maybe they'd forgotten what hungry was. But it wasn't right. Dicey knew what hungry was, and so did Sammy. (2.10.95)
Being a kid is a double whammy sometimes: Not only can adults deprive you of food, but if you're left to fend for yourself, it can also be pretty hard to get food in the first place. No rest for the weary, as the saying goes—or not good for the hungry, as the case may be.
