More quotes by 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
Intelligence is not creative judgment is not creative. If a sculptor is nothing but skill and mind, his hands will be without genius.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
When someone blushes, doesn't that mean 'yes'?
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Grown-ups never understand anything for themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Night, the beloved. Night, when words fade and things come alive. When the destructive analysis of day is done, and all that is truly important becomes whole and sound again. When man reassembles his fragmentary self and grows with the calm of a tree.
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
For there is but one problem - the problem of human relations. We forget that there is no hope or joy except in human relations.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
To be a man is to feel that one's own stone contributes to building the edifice of the world.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
One is a member of a country, a profession, a civilization, a religion. One is not just a man.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
He who never says no is no true man.
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
You do not explain the tree by telling of the water it has drunk, the minerals it has absorbed, and the sunlight that strengthened it.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Of course I’ll hurt you. Of course you’ll hurt me. Of course we will hurt each other. But this is the very condition of existence. To become spring, means accepting the risk of winter. To become presence, means accepting the risk of absence.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
It's hard luck always having to be a judge.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
If you tame me, it would be as if the sun came to shine on my life.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Defeat may prove to have been the only path to resurrection, despite its ugliness.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
The wind in the grain is the caress to the spouse it is the hand of peace stroking her hair.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
What torments me is not the humps nor hollows nor the ugliness. It is the sight, a little bit in all these men, of Mozart murdered.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
A pilot's business is with the wind, and with the stars, with night, with sand, with the sea. He strives to outwit the forces of nature. He stares with expectancy for the coming of the dawn the way a gardener awaits the coming of spring. He looks forward to port as a promised land, and truth for him is what lives in the stars.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
He who must travel happily must travel light.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
