"The essential things in life are seen,..." - Quote by Antoine De Saint Exupery

“He who never says "no" is no true man.”

“It's a question of discipline,' the little prince told me later on. 'when you've finished washing and dressing each morning, you must tend your planet. you must be sure you pull up the baobabs regularly, as soon as you can tell them apart from the rosebushes, which they closely resemble when they're very young. It's very tedious work, but very easy.”

“What does tamed mean? It's something that's been too often neglected. It means to create ties.”

“Nature conceals her secrets because she is sublime, not because she is a trickster.”

“Simply see that you are at the center of the universe, and accept all things and beings as parts of your infinite body. When you perceive that an act done to another is done to yourself, you have understood the great truth.”

“We have heard of a Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge. It is said that knowledge is power, and the like. Methinks there is equal need of a Society for the Diffusion of Useful Ignorance, what we will call Beautiful Knowledge, a knowledge useful in a higher sense: for what is most of our boasted so-called knowledge but a conceit that we know something, which robs us of the advantage of our actual ignorance? What we call knowledge is often our positive ignorance; ignorance our negative knowledge.”

“All thought is immoral. Its very essence is destruction. If you think of anything, you kill it. Nothing survives being thought of.”

“You cannot conceive the many without the one...The study of the unit is among those that lead the mind on and turn it to the vision of reality.”

“All that is noble is in itself of a quiet nature, and appears to sleep until it is aroused and summoned forth by contrast.”
