Quote #10
[…] Though I really found it all ridiculous, I could not help enjoying these crumbs of warmth and kindliness, and was lapping them up like a starved dog. (85)
In this quote food is a metaphor for kindness, which shows how vital it is to survival; the starved dog is Harry, because he has very little kindness in his lonely life. Poor little lonely wolf pup.
