one loves the sunset when one is so sad.

Future quote ideas that I have read:


• You alone will have the stars as no one else has them...
  
  In one of the stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be laughing.
  
  And so it will be as if all the stars were laughing, when you look at the sky at night...
  
  Only you will have stars that can laugh.
  
  
  
• “It is such a mysterious place, the land of tears.”
  
  
• “Well, I must endure the presence of a few caterpillars if I wish to become acquainted with the butterflies.”
  
  
• “You're beautiful, but you're empty...One couldn't die for you.
  
  Of course, an ordinary passerby would think my rose looked just like you.
  
  But my rose, 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 the screen. Since she's the one for whom I killed the caterpillars (except the two or three 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 rose.”
  
  
• “People where you live," the little prince said, "grow five thousand roses in one garden... yet they don't find what they're looking for...
  
  They don't find it," I answered.
  
  And yet what they're looking for could be found in a single rose, or a little water..."
  
  Of course," I answered.
  
  And the little prince added, "But eyes are blind. You have to look with the heart.”
  
  
• “You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.”
  
  
• “Where are the people?” resumed the little prince at last. “It’s a little lonely in the desert…” “It is lonely when you’re among people, too,” said the snake.”
  
  
• “If you love a flower that lives on a star, it is sweet to look at the sky at night. All the stars are a-bloom with flowers...”
  
  
• "For some, who are travelers, the stars are guides. For others they are no more than little lights in the sky."
  
  
  And when your sorrow is comforted (time soothes all sorrows) you will be content that you have known me...
  
  You will always be my friend.
  
  You will want to laugh with me. And you will sometimes open your window, so, for that pleasure... It will be as if, in place of the stars, I had given you a great number of little bells that knew how to laugh”
  
  
• “You're beautiful, but you're empty. No one could die for you.”
  
  
• “She cast her fragrance and her radiance over me.
  
  I ought never to have run away from her... I ought to have guessed all the affection that lay behind her poor little stratagems. Flowers are so inconsistent! But I was too young to know how to love her...”
  
  
• “Grown-ups love figures...
  
  When you tell them you've made a new friend they never ask you any questions about essential 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 much does he weigh? How much money does his father make? "
  
  Only from these figures do they think they have learned anything about him.”
  
  
• “A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contemplates it, bearing within him the image of a cathedral.”
  
  
• “When someone blushes, doesn't that mean 'yes'?”
  
  
• “I have lived a great deal among grown-ups. I have seen them intimately, close at hand. And that hasn’t much improved my opinion of them.”

Then you will know the sunrise breaks in your heart
long before you see it with your eyes on the horizon,
long before the warmth beams across your frigid cheeks,
long before the hands of chill retreat from inside your coat.
