He who is different from me does not impoverish me - he enriches me. Our unity is constituted in something higher than ourselves - in Man... For no man seeks to hear his own echo, or to find his reflection in the glass.

You know...my flower...I'm responsible for her. And she's so weak! And so naive. She has four ridiculous thorns to defend her against the world.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
To be a man is, precisely, to be responsible. It is to feel shame at the sight of what seems to be unmerited misery. It is to take pride in a victory won by one's comrades. It is to feel, when setting one's stone, that one is contributing to the building of the world.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Antoine de Saint-Exupery
When one wishes to play the wit, he sometimes wander a little from the truth.

Antoine de Saint-Exupery
The house, the stars, the desert -- what gives them their beauty is something that is invisible!
Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Antoine de Saint-Exupery
It is the savor of bread broken with comrades that makes us accept the values of war.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
The strong are strengthened by reverses the trouble is that the true meaning of events scores next to nothing in the match we play with men. Appearances decide our gains or losses and the points are trumpery. And a mere semblance of defeat may hopelessly checkmate us.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
The Beauty of the Mountain is hidden for all those who try to discover it from the top, supposing that, one way or an other, one can reach this place directly. The Beauty of the Mountain reveals only to those who climbed it.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Perfection is reachednot when there's nothing to add, but when there's nothing to take away.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
