you've made a new friend they never ask you any
questions about essential matters. They never say

butterflies? " Instead they demand "How old is he?
How much does he weigh? How much money does
his father make? " Only from these figures do they
think they have learned anything about him.”

"It is an act too often neglected," said the fox. "It means to
establish ties."
"To establish ties?"
"Just that," said the fox. "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....”

misunderstandings.”

afternoon, I’ll begin to be
happy by three.”

understand anything. They buy things
already made at the shops. But there
is no shop anywhere where one can
buy friendship, and so men have no
friends anymore. If you want a friend,
tame me...

22. A baobab is something you will never
never be able to get rid of if you attend
to it late.”
