BOOK EXTRACT

“Go see the roses; You will understand that yours is unique in the world. You will return to say goodbye to me again and I will give you a secret.

The little prince went to see the roses to which he said:

“They are nothing, nor do they resemble my rose at all.” No one has domesticated them and you have not domesticated anyone. They are like the fox was before, that in no way differed from a hundred thousand other foxes. But I made him my friend and now he is unique in the world.

The roses were annoyed when they heard the little prince, who continued to tell them:

“They are very beautiful, but they are empty and no one would give their lives for you.” Anyone who sees them can undoubtedly believe that my rose is just like any of you. But she knows herself more important than all, because I have watered her, because it was her that I sheltered with the lantern, because I killed the worms (except for two or three that became butterflies) and it is her that I have heard complain, praise and sometimes even shut up. Because it’s my rose, anyway.

And he returned with the fox.

“Goodbye,” he said.

“Goodbye,” said the fox. Here is my secret, which could not be simpler: only with the heart can one see well; The essential is invisible to the eyes.
