"One day, I watched the sun setting forty-four times," you told me. And a little later, you added: "You know... when one is so terribly sad, one love… - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

You see, one loves the sunset when one is so sad.

One day, I watched the sun setting forty-four times......You know...when one is so terribly sad, one loves sunsets.

One day I saw the sun set forty-four times!' And a little later you added, 'You know, when you're feeling very sad, sunsets are wonderful...'
'On the day of the forty-four times, were you feeling very sad?'
But the little prince didn't answer.

You know — one loves the sunset, when one is so sad.

"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.

You know — one loves the sunset, when one is so sad...

Will you draw me a sheep?

"Supposing I know of a flower that is absolutely unique, that is nowhere to be found except on my planet, and any minute that flower could accidentally be eaten up by a little lamb, isn't that important? If a person loves a flower that is the only one of its kind on all the millions and millions of stars, then gazing at the night sky is enough to make him happy. He says to himself "My flower is out there somewhere." But if the lamb eats the flower, then suddenly it's as if all the stars had stopped shining. Isn't that important?"

Look up at the sky. Ask yourselves: is it yes or no? Has the sheep eaten the flower? And you will see how everything changes...And no grown-up will ever understand that this is a matter of so much importance!
