More quotes by Antoine de Saint-Exupery
I am who I am and I have the need to be.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
One day, you said to me, I saw the sunset forty-four times! And a little later you added: You know-- one loves the sunset, when one is so sad... Were you so sad, then? I asked, on the day of the forty-four sunsets? But the little prince made no reply.
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
One must require from each one the duty which each one can perform. Accepted authority rests first of all on reason.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
In those days, I didn't understand anything. I should have judged her according to her actions, not her words. She perfumed my planet and lit up my life. I should never have run away! I ought to have realized the tenderness underlying her silly pretensions. Flowers are so contadictory! But I was too young to know how to love her.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
The important thing is to strive toward a goal which is not immediately visible. That goal is not the concern of the mind, but of the spirit.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
If you are to be, you must begin by assuming responsibility. You alone are responsible for every moment of your life, for every one of your acts.
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
A goal without a pan is just a wish.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
It is only with the heart that one can see rightly.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Where I live, everything is very small.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
A man's age represents a fine cargo of experiences and memories.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
I have lived a great deal among grown-ups. I have seen them intimately, close at hand. And that hasn’t much improved my opinion of them.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
She knew this man's smile, his gentle ways of love, but not his godlike fury in the storm. She might snare him in a fragile net of music, love and flowers, but, at each departure, he would break forth without, it seemed to her, the least regret.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
The machine does not isolate man from the great problems of nature but plunges him more deeply into them.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
But certainly, for us who understand life, figures are a matter of indifference.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
The tender friendships one gives up, on parting, leave their bite on the heart, but also a curious feeling of a treasure somewhere buried.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Once you are my friend, I am responsible for you.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Perfection is finally attained not when there is no longer anything to add, but when there is no longer anything to take away, when a body has been stripped down to its nakedness.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
We must not subject him who creates to the desires of the multitude. It is, rather, his creation that must become the multitude's desire.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
