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

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

For true love is inexhaustible; the more you give, the more you have. And if you go to draw at the true fountainhead, the more water you draw, the more abundant is its flow.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

When you give yourself, you receive more than you give.

There is a cheap literature that speaks to us of the need of escape. It is true that when we travel we are in search of distance. But distance is not to be found. It melts away. And escape has never led anywhere. The moment a man finds that he must play the races, go the Arctic, or make war in order to feel himself alive, that man has begin to spin the strands that bind him to other men and to the world. But what wretched strands! A civilization that is really strong fills man to the brim, though he never stir. What are we worth when motionless, is the question.

True happiness comes from the joy of deeds well done, the zest of creating things new.

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

What do we mean by setting a m...

What do we mean by setting a man free? You cannot free a man who dwells in a desert and is an unfeeling brute. There is no liberty except the liberty of some one making his way towards something. Such a man can be set free if you will teach him the meaning of thirst, and how to trace a path to a well. Only then will he embark upon a course of action that will not be without significance. You could not liberate a stone if there were no law of gravity -- for where will the stone go, once it is quarried?

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

Each man must look to himself ...

Each man must look to himself to teach him the meaning of life. It is not something discovered: it is something molded.

A pile of rocks ceases to be a rock when somebody contemplates it with the idea of a cathedral in mind.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

We say nothing essential about...

We say nothing essential about the cathedral when we speak of its stones. We say nothing essential about Man when we seek to define him by the qualities of men.

The machine does not isolate man from the great problems of nature but plunges him more deeply into them.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

Night, the beloved. Night, whe...

Night, the beloved. Night, when words fade and things come alive. When the destructive analysis of day is done, and all that is truly important becomes whole and sound again. When man reassembles his fragmentary self and grows with the calm of a tree.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

How could drops of water know ...

How could drops of water know themselves to be a river? Yet the river flows on.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

One can be a brother only in something. Where there is no tie that binds men, men are not united but merely lined up.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

Perfection is finally attained...

Perfection is finally attained not when there is no longer anything to add but when there is no longer anything to take away, when a body has been stripped down to its nakedness.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

Only he can understand what a ...

Only he can understand what a farm is, what a country is, who shall have sacrificed part of himself to his farm or country, fought to save it, struggled to make it beautiful. Only then will the love of farm or country fill his heart.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

Only the unknown frightens men...

Only the unknown frightens men. But once a man has faced the unknown, that terror becomes the known.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

How could there be any question of acquiring or possessing, when the one thing needful for a man is to become -- to be at last, and to die in the fullness of his being.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery 443 quotes

On a day of burial there is no...

On a day of burial there is no perspective -- for space itself is annihilated. Your dead friend is still a fragmentary being. The day you bury him is a day of chores and crowds, of hands false or true to be shaken, of the immediate cares of mourning. The dead friend will not really die until tomorrow, when silence is round you again. Then he will show himself complete, as he was -- to tear himself away, as he was, from the substantial you. Only then will you cry out because of him who is leaving and whom you cannot detain.

Of what worth are convictions that bring not suffering?
