About This Quote
This is a great example of how to use language to your advantage. Winter was saying that she was hungry for other things than food, but she used the word “I am” instead of “You are”. This is called an indirect question. It's using the words in the same order they're written, but it's asking a different question. It's like saying "You are hungry? I thought you said you were hungry."
