James Morris Food Quotations

It's still early but if current predictions prove correct, then Malawi may have more food at its disposal this year than in previous years.

Food must come first. We cannot put families who have lost their homes and loved ones to violence on a 1,000-calorie-a-day diet.

I think the issues are difficult. There has been a lot of movement of people among countries, a lot of conflict for a long time; and the food security issues are a challenge.

We still have needs of $63 million to buy some additional food to complete our work to June.

Other humanitarian agencies in southern Somalia face the enormous challenge of reaching drought victims in remote and insecure areas. We urge leaders and rival militia to set aside their differences and guarantee safe passage (of food aid) to prevent a humanitarian catastrophe.

And with forecasters suggesting that the April rains will also be poor, the number of families needing assistance could grow in the coming months. Without adequate emergency food aid, we fear for the worst.

Debt relief means very little to a starving child who needs food now
