The Little Prince

“And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
“The most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or touched, they are felt with the heart.”

"Just that," said the fox. "To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world....”

“People have forgotten this truth," the fox said. "But you mustn’t forget it. You become responsible forever for what you’ve tamed. You’re responsible for your rose.”

“You - you alone will have the stars as no one else has them...In one of the stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be laughing. And so it will be as if all the stars were laughing, when you look at the sky at night...You - only you - will have stars that can laugh.”

“You see, one loves the sunset when one is so sad.” 
“I was too young to know how to love her.”
“Words are the source of misunderstandings.” 

“If you come at four in the afternoon, I'll begin to be happy by three.”







“Of course, I love you,' the flower said to him. 'If you were not aware of it, it was my fault.”  

“It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important.” 

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

Alice in Wonderland




'In most gardens', the Tiger-lily said, 'they make the bed too soft - so that the flowers are always asleep.'


“I'm afraid I can't explain myself, sir. Because I am not myself, you see?”

“My dear, here we must run as fast as we can, just to stay in place. And if you wish to go anywhere you must run twice as fast as that.”

 

“I wonder if I've been changed in the night. Let me think. Was I the same when I got up this morning? I almost think I can remember feeling a little different. But if I'm not the same, the next question is 'Who in the world am I?' Ah, that's the great puzzle!”  
 
“Alice:How long is forever? White Rabbit:Sometimes, just one second.” 

“If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense.”  

“It is better to be feared than loved.”
“I can't go back to yesterday because I was a different person then.”


“I wish I hadn't cried so much!”


 

The more there is of mine, the less there is of yours.” so I let you speak...
