To become a man is to be responsible to be ashamed of miseries that you did not cause.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery

What he had yearned to embrace was not the flesh but a down spirit, a spark, the impalpable angel that inhabits the flesh.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Image
Charity never humiliated him who profited from it, nor ever bound him by the chains of gratitude, since it was not to him but to God that the gift was made.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Image
The seed haunted by the sun never fails to find its way between the stones in the ground. And the pure logician, if no sun draws him forth, remains entangled in his logic.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Image
A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contemplates it, bearing within him the image of a cathedral.
