The Little Prince

"You become responsible, forever, for what you've tamed."

"All grown-ups were once children, but only few of them remember it."

"It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."

"It is a time you will spend on your rose that counts"

"One must not confuse greatness with height"

"I had thus learned a second fact of great importance: this was that the planet the little prince came from was scarcely any larger than a house!"

"The sight of all these riches made the little prince think"

"Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tedious for children to be always and forever explaining things to them"

"Men have forgotten this truth. But you must not forget it. You are forever responsible for what you have tamed"

"It matters very much to me that you should love me"

"I am nobody's friend"

"The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in mind at the same time"

"I have never really played. I have always been too much absorbed in matters of consequence"

"But he never said anything about his flower. He never spoke of her. But I could see that he was not really cured at all"

"Each man is responsible for all men"

"The remedy for everything is salt water: sweat, tears, or the sea"

"If you come at just any time, I shall never know at what hour my heart is to be ready to greet you"

"I too am alone"

"It is only with the heart that one can see rightly"

"All grown-ups were once children, but only few of them remember it"

"I shall look at one particular wheat field. Therefore, it is important"

"Your hair is the colour of gold. Think how wonderful that will be when you have tamed me!"

"The wheat fields have nothing to do with me"

"But if you tame me, then we shall need each other"

"To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys"

"People have forgotten this truth, but you must not forget it"

"It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important"

"You become responsible forever for what you've tamed"

"One sees clearly only with the heart"

"What is essential is invisible to the eye"
