Some Quotes from The Little Prince

“It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”

“What makes the desert beautiful,” says the little prince, “is that somewhere it hides a well.”

“You're beautiful, but you're empty.... No one could die for you.”

“One must command from each what each can perform,” the king went on. “Authority is based first of all upon reason. If you command your subjects to jump into the ocean, there will be a revolution. I am entitled to command obedience because my orders are reasonable.”

“You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.”

~From Le Petit Prince (The Little Prince) by Antoine de Saint Exupéry
