" LE PETIT PRINCE " -- St-Exupéry


Here's one of my FAVORITE quotes from    
           Le Petit Prince (1943)
Voici mon secret ... Il est très simple: on ne voit rien qu'avec le cœur. L'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux.


Here is my secret. It is very simple. It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; What is essential is invisible to the eye.

  • Variant translations: Here is my secret. It is very simple: one sees well only with the heart. The essential is invisible to the eyes.
  • The essential things in life are seen not with the eyes, but with the heart.

You'll find it in Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's
most famous story of  "The Little Prince" ***
And it's all about what is important in life,
what is in your HEART and SOUL  
and in the hearts of all the ones you LOVE!

*** NOTE:

You are right... it's a very good story. Fortunately, in the life of all the days, we often forget the important things. The day where the people are going to think it, the world will be better and happier.

Unfortunately, in our daily lives, we often forget what are the important things.

When people start thinking this way, when that day comes, the world will be a better and happier place!

Good "thought-of-the-day" from you Huguette!
Thanks for sharing!
Have a great Valentine's Day1
