The prince:
英国宣布解封计划
In tho days, I didn’t understand anything. I should have judged her according to her actions, not her words. She perfumed my planet and lit up my life. I should never have run away! I ought to have realized the tenderness underlying her silly pretensions. Flowers are so contradictory! But I was too young to know how to love her.
She would cough terribly and pretend to be dying, to avoid being laughed at. And I’d have to pretend to be nursing her; otherwi, she’d really let herlf die in order to humiliate me. You’re lovely, but you’re empty. One couldn’t die for you. Of cour, an ordinary pasrby would think my ro looked just like you. But my ro, all on her own, is more important than all of you together, since she’s the one I’ve watered. Since she’s the one I put under glass, since she’s the one I sheltered behind a screen. Since she’s the one for whom I killed the caterpillars (except the two or three for butterflies). Since she’s the one I listened to when she complained, or when she boasted, or even sometimes when she said nothing at all. Since she’s my ro.
Only the children know what they’re looking for.
People start out in express trains, but they no longer know what they’re looking for. Then they get all excited and rush around in circles. It’s not worth the trouble.
Eyes are blind. You have to look with the heart.
You risk tears if you let yourlf be tamed.
The King:
If I commanded a general to fly from one flower to the next like a butterfly, or to write a tragedy, or to turn into a agull, and if the general did not carry out my command, which of us would be in the wrong the general or me?
Authority is bad first of all upon reason.
It is much harder to judge yourlf than to judge others. If you succeed in judging yourlf, it’s becau you are truly a wi man.
