Need
,→Demand
However, in doing so, something else is introduced which causes a [[split]] between [[need]] and [[demand]]; this is the fact that every [[demand]] is not only an articulation of [[need]] but also an (unconditional) [[demand]] for [[love]].
Now, although the [[other]] to whom the [[demand]] is addressed (in the first instance, the [[mother]]) can and may supply the [[object]] which [[satisfies ]] the [[infant]]'s [[need]], she is never in a position to answer the [[demand]] for [[love]] unconditionally, because she too is [[division|divided]].
The result of this [[split]] between [[need]] and [[demand]] is an [[insatiable ]] leftover, which is [[desire]] itself.
