Cultural need (n.) is created by its supply, where biological need creates its own.
Divine need (n.) is met in history, not in sanctuaries: God wants mercy and justice, not buildings.
Human need (n.) begins where food and shelter leave off and matters far more — though, as Brecht warned, feeding the face comes first.
Human need (n.) has a fixed floor for everyone and no fixed ceiling for anyone.
Spiritual need (n.) must be planted and cultivated, while a taste for pleasure spreads by social osmosis.
