It is such a secret place, the land of tears.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

If you want to build a ship, d...

If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

I have no right, by anything I...

I have no right, by anything I do or say, to demean a human being in his own eyes. What matters is not what I think of him; it is what he thinks of himself. To undermine a man's self-respect is a sin.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

He who has gone, so we but che...

He who has gone, so we but cherish his memory, abides with us, more potent, nay, more present than the living man.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

Grown-ups never understand any...

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

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

And now here is my secret, a v...

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 eye.

A single event can awaken within us a stranger totally unknown to us. To live is to be slowly born.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

A rock pile ceases to be a roc...

A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contemplates it, bearing within him the image of a cathedral.

A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.

A chief is a man who assumes responsibility. He says 'I was beaten,' he does not say 'My men were beaten'.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

The injustice of defeat lies i...

The injustice of defeat lies in the fact that its most innocent victims are made to look like heartless accomplices. It is impossible to see behind defeat, the sacrifices, the austere performance of duty, the self-discipline and the vigilance that are there -- those things the god of battle does not take account of.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

A civilization is built on wha...

A civilization is built on what is required of men, not on that which is provided for them.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

Transport of the mails, transp...

Transport of the mails, transport of the human voice, transport of flickering pictures --in this century as in others our highest accomplishments still have the single aim of bringing men together.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

Commonly, people believe that ...

Commonly, people believe that defeat is characterized by a general bustle and a feverish rush. Bustle and rush are the signs of victory, not of defeat. Victory is a thing of action. It is a house in the act of being built. Every participant in victory sweats and puffs, carrying the stones for the building of the house. But defeat is a thing of weariness, of incoherence, of boredom. And above all of futility.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

A civilization is a heritage o...

A civilization is a heritage of beliefs, customs, and knowledge slowly accumulated in the course of centuries, elements difficult at times to justify by logic, but justifying themselves as paths when they lead somewhere, since they open up for man his inner distance.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

Charity never humiliated him w...

Charity never humiliated him who profited from it, nor ever bound him by the chains of gratitude, since it was not to him but to God that the gift was made.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

When the body sinks into death...

When the body sinks into death, the essence of man is revealed. Man is a knot, a web, a mesh into which relationships are tied. Only those relationships matter. The body is an old crock that nobody will miss. I have never known a man to think of himself when dying. Never.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

It is in the compelling zest of high adventure and of victory, and in creative action, that man finds his supreme joys.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

Whoever loves above all the ap...

Whoever loves above all the approach of love will never know the joy of attaining it.

It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.
