Antoine de Saint-Exupery
The wind in the grain is the caress to the spouse it is the hand of peace stroking her hair.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
I know but one freedom and that is the freedom of the mind.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Si quelqu'un veut un mouton, c'est la preuve qu'il en existe un. (If somebody wants a sheep, that is a proof that one exists.)
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
How could there be any question of acquiring or possessing, when the one thing needful for a man is to become - to be at last, and to die in the fullness of his being.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
It is much more difficult to judge oneself than to judge others.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
In giving you are throwing a bridge across the chasm of your solitude.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
