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

When the body sinks into death, the essence of man is revealed. Man is a knot, a web, a mesh into which relationships are tied. Only those relationships matter. The body is an old crock that nobody will miss. I have never known a man to think of himself when dying. Never.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Make your life a dream, and a dream a reality.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Antoine de Saint-Exupery
When I find a woman attractive, I have nothing at all to say. I simply watch her smile. Intellectuals take apart her face in order to explain it bit by bit, but they no longer see the smile.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
It's all a great mystery...Look up at the sky and you'll see how everything changes
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
To forget a friend is sad. Not every one has had a friend. And if I forget him, I may become like the grown−ups who are no longer interested in anything but figures.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
I shall never again admire a merely brave man.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
I showed the grown ups my maasterpiece, andI asked them if my drawing scared them. They answered why be scared of a hat? My drawing was not a picture of a hat. It was a picture of a boa constrictor digesting an elephant.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
The proof that the little prince existed is that he was charming, that he laughed, and that he was looking for a sheep. If anybody wants a sheep, that is a proof that he exists.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
If you tame me, it would be as if the sun came to shine on my life.
