Philosophy Quote by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“And the fox said to the little prince: men have forgotten this truth, but you must not forget it. You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.”

“Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking together in the same direction.”

“I shall look at you out of the corner of my eye, and you will say nothing. Words are the source of misunderstandings.”

“I am beginning to understand," said the little prince. "There is a flower... I think that she has tamed me...”

“Good morning," said the little prince.”

“And when your sorrow is comforted (time soothes all sorrows) you will be content that you have known me.”

“Septimus has been working too hard" - that was all she could say to her own mother. To love makes one solitary, she thought.”

“A day without laughter is a day wasted.”

“In actual fact. The manifold sexualities - those which appear with the different ages (sexualities of the infant or the child), those which become fixated on particular tastes or practices (the sexuality of the invert, the gerontophile, the fetishist), those which, in a diffuse manner, invest relationships (the sexuality of doctor and patient, teacher and student, psychiatrist and mental patient), those which haunt spaces (the sexuality of the home, the school, the prison)- all form the correlate of exact procedures of power.”

“Let us cherish and love old age; for it is full of pleasure if one knows how to use it. Fruits are most welcome when almost over; youth is most charming at its close; the last drink delights the toper, the glass which souses him and puts the finishing touch on his drunkenness. Each pleasure reserves to the end the greatest delights which it contains. Life is most delightful when it is on the downward slope, but has not yet reached the abrupt decline.”

“நீ வெற்றிகக்காக போராடும்போது வீண்முயற்ச்சி என்று சொல்லபவர்கள்,நீ வெற்றி பெற்றபின் விடாமுயற்சி என்பார்கள்”
