The Little Prince

"You will always be my friend."

"But when a mystery is too overpowering, one dare not disobey."

"There is a flower on my planet. She is the only one of her kind in all the millions of worlds."

"The business man was counting the stars and making notes on a paper."

"One must impose discipline on oneself."

"If I were to command a general to fly from one flower to another like a butterfly, or to write a tragedy, and he did not obey, whose fault would it be?"

"Vanity is always so hard to handle, especially for those who are powerful."

"I love the sunset. Let us go look at the sunset."

"The well we saw was not just a well. It was the well of my life."

"To forget a friend is sadness. For every moment we spent with them is a part of our life."

"I have lived a lot. I have loved and I have loved strongly."

"There is no mystery in deserts, only the sadness of empty spaces."

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

"A man is never too old to learn something new."

"If you love a flower, don't pick it up. Because if you pick it up it dies and it ceases to be what you love."

"The stars are beautiful, because of a flower that cannot be seen."

"I am looking for friends. What does that mean—tame?"

"In one of the stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be laughing."

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

"One sees clearly only with the heart. Anything essential is invisible to the eyes."

"What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere in it there is a well."

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

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

"The essential is invisible to the eye, but visible to the heart."

"But she was my rose; I was responsible for her."

"One cannot be master of what one does not understand."

"The stars make the desert beautiful. Because they hide a well somewhere."

"You puzzle me, little prince. Why have you come to this planet?"

"But my rose, all on her own, is more important than all the hundreds of you other roses."

"And when you're consoled, you'll be glad you knew me."
