> Need is limited, but want can be infinite.

Lately, as I've started to feel secure that I have much more than I may ever need, my problem now is that I've also come to realize that I want very few things in my life. I want to want but I think most things are completely worthless.

I'm flabbergasted by the author's problems. They struggle with wanting... tea cups? A lamp? What on earth are they talking about?
