More quotes by Antoine de Saint-Exupery
True love is visible not to the eyes but to the heart, for eyes may be deceived.
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
It's useful because it's beautiful.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Let a man in a garret but burn with enough intensity and he will set fire to the world.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well.
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
You cannot plant an acorn in the morning, and expect that afternoon to sit in the shade of an oak.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Nothing can match the treasure of common memories, of trials endured together, of quarrels and reconciliations and generous emotions. It is idle, having planted an acorn in the morning, to expect that afternoon to sit in the shade of the oak.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Men have forgotten this truth, said the fox. But you must not forget it. You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
One only really sees with the heart.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Every person that comes into our life comes for a reason some come to learn and others come to teach.
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
She cast her fragrance and her radiance over me. I ought never to have run away from her... I ought to have guessed all the affection that lay behind her poor little stratagems. Flowers are so inconsistent! But I was too young to know how to love her.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
You give birth to that on which you fix your mind
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Grown ups are certainly very strange.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
More wisdom is latent in things as they are than in all the words men use.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
I shall never again admire a merely brave man.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
But games always cover something deep and intense, else there would be no excitement in them, no pleasure, no power to stir us.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
To grasp the meaning of the world of today we use a language created to express the world of yesterday. The life of the past seems to us nearer our true natures, but only for the reason that it is nearer our language.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
He had taken seriously words which were without importance, and it made him very unhappy.
