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

“Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them”

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

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

“I know but one freedom and that is the freedom of the mind.”

“Well, I must endure the presence of a few caterpillars if I wish to become acquainted with the butterflies.”

“True love begins when nothing is looked for in return.”

“Silence is a lie that screams at the light.”

He had not been Yamamoto’s choice to command the Striking Force; his assignment was the decision of the Navy Ministry in Tokyo, based on seniority.

Finally, he fixed a steely gaze on his chief of staff, and in a low, intense voice: “Admiral Nagumo is going to withdraw.”

“Our life contains a thousand springs,”

“I doubt love can do little else, if it cannot bring back people back from the dead.”

“You have to be very deep to be dead, he thought, and I'm not. He began to have some concept of forever, and his mind shivered as his body had when he had wakened in the cold nights and thrust his hands between his thighs to keep warm. It will be a long night, he thought.”
