LE PETIT PRINCE


Today I enjoyed some peaceful moments re-reading the Little Prince while the cat was asleep.

"The men where you live," said the little prince, "raise five thousand roses in the same garden and they do not find in it what they are looking for."
"They do not find it," I replied.
"And yet what they are looking for could be found in one single rose, or in a little water."
"Yes, that is true," I said.
... and the little prince added:
"But the eyes are blind. one must look with the heart ..."
from the little prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
