Antoine de Saint-Exupery
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.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery

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
But eyes are blind. You have to look with the heart.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
It is the missed opportunity that counts, and in a love that vainly yearns from behind prison bars you have perchance the love supreme.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
When one wishes to play the wit, he sometimes wander a little from the truth.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
It is in your act that you exist, not in your body. Your act is yourself, and there is no other you.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
The tree is a slow, enduring force straining to win the sky.
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
