Additional quotes by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

"It's all a great mystery. For you, who love the little prince, too. As for me, nothing in the universe can be the same if somewhere, no one knows where, a sheep we never saw has or has not eaten a rose....

And no grown-up will ever understand how such a thing could be so important!"

Quand on veut un mouton, c'est la preuve qu'on existe.
