The Little Price - Quotes

Grown-ups love figures. When you tell them that you have made a new friend, they never ask you any questions about essentail matters. They never say to you, “What does his voice sound like? What games does he love best? Does he collect butterflies?” Instead, they demand: “How old is he? How many brothers has 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.

 “I know a planet where there is a certain red-faced gentleman. He had never smelled a flower. He has never looked at a star. He has never loved any one. He has never done anything in his life but add up figures.”

“Why are you drinking?” demanded the little prince.

“So that I may forget,” replied the tippler.

“Forget what?” inquired the little prince, who already felt sorry for him.

“Forget that I am ashamed,” the tippler confessed, hanging his head.

“Ashamed of what?” insisted the little prince, who wanted to help him.

“Ashamed of drinking!”

 “Nevertheless he is the only one of them all who does not seem to me ridiculous. Perhaps that is because he is thinking of something else besides himself.”

“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…”

 “You have hair like the color of gold. Think how wonderful that will be when you have tamed me! The grain, which is also golden, will bring me back the thought of you. And I shall love to listen to the wind in the wheat…”

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

“What makes the desert beautiful,” said the little prince, “is that somewhere it hides a well…”

 "All men have the stars," he answered, "but they are not the same things for different people. For some, who are travellers, the stars are guides. For others they are no more than little lights in the sky. For others, who are scholars, they are problems. For my businessman they were wealth. But all the stars are silent. You--you alone--will have the stars as no one else has them--"

Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction.

You become responsible forever, for what you have tamed.

That is the hardest thing of all. It is much harder to judge yourself than to judge others. If you succeed in judging yourself, it's because you're truly a wise man.

You risk tears if you let yourself be tamed.

A Beautiful Day

At the beginning of the autumn, the beautiful days should not be wasted, because we may have to wait six months before the next one.

Today was one of those days that make u forget the summer is gone, it was warm and sunny. So I took advantage and spent it outside - walking downtown with a friend, shopping, stopping now and then for a coffee or a little snack.

There's a place where they make very good coffee and efery time we're aroung we stop by. That reminds me of a quote from "Twin Peaks":

 

"I'm going to let you in on a little secret. Every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don't plan it. Don't wait for it. Just let it happen. It could be a new shirt at the men's store, a catnap in your office chair, or two cups of good, hot black coffee."

 

And as I mentioned shopping, they just came my way :)

A different point of view: What makes us who we are?

Wedding

One of my closest friends just got married. It was so exiting, she was one of those girls who couldn't be tamed, but now she's a happy wife.
As per the Bulgarian tradition the groom came with his closest guests to the bride's home where she was getting ready with her family and friends:

The orchestra came with him and there were a lot of traditional Bulgarian dances (oh, I must learn that some day soon), balloons and beautiful decorations:

Then we became witnesses of the sign off of the marriage certificate. The Miss was officially pronounced for "Mrs."

 

And we had a short photo session:

Then they got married in front of God:

After the official part was done, we enjoyed the reception:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don't know what happened, but what's done, is done :)

Girl, your love is blind
