The Little Prince 小王子
Excerpts: If you could fly to France in one minute, you could go straight into the sunset, right from noon. Unfortunately, France is too far away for that. But on your tiny planet, my little prince, all you need do is move your chair a few steps. You can see the day end and the twilight falling whenever you like…
“One day,” you said to me, “I say the sunset forty-four times!”
And a little later you added:
“You know—one loves the sunset, when one is so sad…”
“Were you so sad, then?” I asked, “on the day of the forty-four sunsets?” But the little prince made no reply.
Feeling: Sometimes we may be confronted with sadness but we should try to find a way to get rid of it or to let off those who hurt us. Never give way to sadness.
Excerpts: To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you, I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world.// It has done me good, because of the color of the wheat fields. Go and look again at the roses. You will understand now that yours is unique in all the world.// And now here is my secret, a very simple secret. It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eyes.// It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important.//
