The Little Prince
The Little Prince has come
The dreams of Saint-Exupery
A boy refused to die
And it is winter now
It too has come so late
Now that the world is warming
The snow is building in the sky
All the schools are closing
Commuter lines are dressed in white
Perhaps I will stay home and read
Sharing Saint-Exupery's dreams
My little girl and I.

To be a man is, precisely, to be responsible. It is to feel shame at the sight of what seems to be unmerited misery. It is to take pride in a victory won by one's comrades. It is to feel, when setting one's stone, that one is contributing to the building of the world.

You are beautiful, but you are empty. One could not die for you. To be sure, an ordinary passerby would think that my rose looked just like you--the rose that belongs to me. But in herself alone she is more important than all the hundreds of you other roses: because it is she that I have watered.
