Antoine de Saint-Exupery quotes

Love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction. A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away. War is not an adventure. It is a disease. It is like typhus. 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. The meaning of things lies not in the things themselves, but in our attitude towards them. What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well. I know but one freedom, and that is the freedom of the mind. When you give yourself, you receive more than you give. True happiness comes from the joy of deeds well done, the zest of creating things new. The time for action is now. It's never too late to do something. It is in the compelling zest of high adventure and of victory, and in creative action, that man finds his supreme joys. To be a man is, precisely, to be responsible. He who has gone, so we but cherish his memory, abides with us, more potent, nay, more present than the living man. 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. 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. Whoever loves above all the approach of love will never know the joy of attaining it. My Video: Antoine de Saint-Exupery quotes My Audio:
