❝ Dobrze widzi się tylko sercem. Najważniejsze jest niewidoczne dla oczu ❞. 

Someone

Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them

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...

When someone blushes, doesn't that mean 'yes'?

In one of those 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. 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...I shall not leave you

People have stars, but they aren't the same. For travelers, the stars are guides. For other people, they're nothing but tiny lights. And for still others, for scholars, they're problems... But all those stars are silent stars. You, though, you'll have stars like nobody else... since I'll be laughing on one of them, for you it'll be as if all the stars are laughing. You'll have stars that can laugh!... and it'll be as if I had given you, instead of stars, a lot of tiny bells that know how to laugh ...

Look at the sky. Ask yourselves: Has the sheep eaten the flower, yes or no? And you will see how everything changes.

And a little later you added: ‘You know, when a person is very, very sad, they like sunsets.’

‘And were you very, very sad on the day you watched forty-four sunsets?’

"If someone loves flowers, of which one single blossom grows in all the millions and millions of stars, it is enough to make him happy just to look at the stars."

It is such a secret place, the land of tears.

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

"An aviator, downed in the desert and facing long odds of survival, encounters a strange young person, neither man nor really boy, who, it emerges over time, has travelled from his solitary home on a distant asteroid, where he lives alone with a single rose. The rose has made him so miserable that, in torment, he has taken advantage of a flock of birds to convey him to other planets. He is instructed by a wise if cautious fox, and by a sinister angel of death, the snake."--Adam Gopnik, The New Yorker

My ebook copy messed up the italic sentences so I’m pretty sure I missed out on some important quotes, which is why this gets four stars.

Wow… what a book. I didn’t expect this at all. From the first page, it grabs your attention, and it’s such a great way to show what happens to all of us when we become adults. What happens to the child inside of us? We spend our adulthood busy with matters of consequence and forget the joys of life that even a sunrise or sunset can give us, or a flower, or the everyday beauty we find in nature. As of 2026, we are the only planet in the whole universe that we know of that has these things. (The nature and animals part—sunrises and sunsets happen everywhere, but I don’t know if they’re as beautiful as they are on Earth.) Definitely one of my most recommended reads.

Such an adorable and cutesy read.

El principito

la tipicaaa, lo leí hace mucho y la verdad que me gustó bastante, los arcos de la rosa y del zorro me parecieron muy interesantes y en su momento me ayudaron mucho a superar unas cuestiones que tenía. supongo que es como el sui generis de los libros

Este libro fue de los primeros que amé de verdad. Lo leí de chiquita porque se veía cute, pero cada vez que lo releo (y ya van varias), me da en lugares distintos del alma. 💛

The Little Prince and nbsp;(French: and nbsp;Le Petit Prince) is a and nbsp;novella and nbsp;by French aristocrat, writer, and aviator and nbsp;Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. It was first published in English and French in the US by and nbsp;Reynal and amp; Hitchcock and nbsp;in April 1943, and posthumously in France following the and nbsp;liberation of France and nbsp;as Saint-Exupéry's works had been banned by the and nbsp;Vichy Regime. The story follows a young prince who visits various planets in space, including Earth, and addresses themes of loneliness, friendship, love, and loss. Despite its style as a children's book, and nbsp;The Little Prince and nbsp;makes observations about life, adults and human nature. The Little Prince and nbsp;became Saint-Exupéry's most successful work, selling an estimated 140 million copies worldwide, which makes it one of the and nbsp;best-selling and nbsp;and and nbsp;most translated books and nbsp;ever published. and nbsp;It has been translated into 301 languages and dialects. and nbsp;The Little Prince and nbsp;has been adapted to numerous art forms and media, including audio recordings, radio plays, live stage, film, television, ballet, and opera.

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s The Little Prince is a charming and thought-provoking novella that beautifully blends whimsy with profound life lessons. It’s an allegorical tale about love, relationships, and seeing the world through the eyes of a child. The book’s simple yet poetic style, combined with its enchanting illustrations, makes it a timeless classic that has resonated with readers for generations.

What I loved most was the story’s ability to convey profound truths in an accessible way. 

Each planet the Little Prince visits represents a different way humans seek fulfilment through power, knowledge, wealth, or duty. However, the Prince’s wisdom reveals that true meaning lies in love, relationships, and seeing the world with a childlike sense of wonder. The book suggests that by reconnecting with our inner child and valuing what is "invisible to the eye," we can find deeper purpose and joy in life. Lines like these are meaningful reminders of the importance of love, empathy, and imagination in a world that often values materialism over deeper connections.

That said, the book is undoubtedly a work of art and philosophy, and I’d recommend it to anyone open to reflecting on life’s deeper meanings. By tackling the universal themes of love, innocence, and loss among others, The Little Prince becomes more than a simple children’s story; it’s a reflective, philosophical work that speaks to readers of all ages about the beauty and fragility of human connections. It invites readers to look beyond the surface and reconnect with the innocence and curiosity we often lose as we grow up.

O pequeno príncipe

eu tinha medo do homem gordo burocrático quando eu era criança

Pedro Rodarte

The Little Prince [Le Petit Prince], is a novella and the most famous work of the French aristocrat, writer, poet and pioneering aviator Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1900-1944). The novella is both the most-read and most-translated book in the French language, and was voted the best book of the 20th century in France. After the outbreak of the Second World War Saint-Exupéry became exiled in North America. In the midst of personal upheavals and failing health, he produced almost half of the writings for which he would be remembered, including a tender tale of loneliness, friendship, love and loss, in the form of a young prince fallen to Earth. An earlier memoir by the author had recounted his aviation experiences in the Sahara Desert, and he is thought to have drawn on those same experiences in The Little Prince. Since its first publication in the United States, the novella has been adapted to numerous art forms and media, including audio recordings, radio plays, live stage, film screen, television, ballet, and operatic works. The Little Prince is a poetic tale, with watercolour illustrations by the author, in which a pilot stranded in the desert meets a young prince fallen to Earth from a tiny asteroid. The story is philosophical and includes social criticism, remarking on the strangeness of the adult world. It was written during a period when Saint-Exupéry fled to North America subsequent to the Fall of France during the Second World War, witnessed first hand by the author and captured in his memoir Flight to Arras. The adult fable, according to one review, is actually ..".an allegory of Saint-Exupéry's own life--his search for childhood certainties and interior peace, his mysticism, his belief in human courage and brotherhood.... but also an allusion to the tortured nature of their relationship." Though ostensibly styled as a children's book, The Little Prince makes several observations about life and human nature. For example, Saint-Exupéry tells of a fox meeting the young prince during his travels on Earth. The story's essence is contained in the lines uttered by the fox to the little prince: On ne voit bien qu'avec le coeur. L'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux. ("One sees clearly only with the heart. What is essential is invisible to the eyes.") Other key thematic messages are articulated by the fox, such as: Tu deviens responsable pour toujours de ce que tu as apprivoisé. ("You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.") and C'est le temps que tu as perdu pour ta rose qui fait ta rose si importante. ("It is the time you have lost for your rose that makes your rose so important.") The fox's messages are arguably the book's most famous quotations because they deal with human relationships. ABOUT AUTHOR: Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, officially Antoine Marie Jean-Baptiste Roger, comte de Saint Exupéry (29 June 1900 - 31 July 1944) was a French aristocrat, writer, poet, and pioneering aviator. He became a laureate of several of France's highest literary awards and also won the U.S. National Book Award. He is best remembered for his novella The Little Prince (Le Petit Prince) and for his lyrical aviation writings, including Wind, Sand and Stars and Night Flight.

[Illustrated Edition]

It's a beautifully written classic short story. Even though it's for children, I learned quite a lot from it and it was heartwarming.

The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry resonates with deep philosophical and emotional currents, wrapped in simplicity. The story explores the innocence of childhood and the complexities of adulthood through the Little Prince, a curious and sensitive boy from another planet. His journey across worlds is a metaphysical quest to understand the nature of love, relationships, and the invisible truths that adults, consumed by superficial concerns, often overlook.

The Little Prince's encounters with figures like the king, the businessman, and the vain man are metaphors for the flaws and obsessions that entrap adults. Each character is fixated on trivial pursuits, symbolizing how adulthood often leads to a loss of wonder and an inability to grasp what truly matters. In contrast, the Little Prince’s childlike curiosity and openness highlight the essential truths that lie beneath the surface, truths that can only be grasped through the heart rather than the eyes.

The relationship between the Little Prince and the rose is one of the story’s poignant metaphors for love. The rose, fragile yet proud, teaches the prince that love is not about possession but about care, time, and responsibility. His journey teaches him that what makes the rose special is not its appearance, but the bond they’ve formed. The fox further deepens this lesson, emphasizing that the most meaningful connections in life are invisible, built through the act of taming, loving and being loved. Saint-Exupéry reminds us that real meaning comes from these intimate connections, not from what can be seen or owned.

The Little Prince is a poetic meditation on life, love, and human connection, urging us to remember that the most valuable things are often invisible, existing in the heart and spirit rather than the material world. It invites readers to reconnect with the wisdom of childhood, where the world is experienced with a sense of wonder, and the heart guides us to what truly matters.

A solid ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5! Awalnya nggak ngerti tuh kenapa pindah-pindah planet—he met a lot of new people on different planets with different personalities, of course. He met The Rose, his Rose. Met The Fox. And others characters. Part paling sedih menurutku adalah waktu he’s running out of pace, growing up isn’t the problem; forgetting is! The Little Prince will forever hold the cherished part in my heart. </3

The Little Prince (Harper Classics)

i wish i’d read this as a child but that didn’t stop me from enjoying it as an adult. a few parts were lost on me but still just an absolutely beautifully written, sweet story. “its too far, i can’t take this body with me, its too heavy” ok what if i break down crying actually what the hell this altered my perspective on death entirely im not ok

Il piccolo principe

Sadly I think I am too old to enjoy this book as much as a child would, and I know the point of the book is actually that, ironically I am a weird adult now, what a horrendous way to find out..

What a heartwarming novel! Glad I finally read it in full and that it's my first book for 2023.

I have wanted to reread this book for a very long time. And now that I finally had, I come to understand that it is not only a story for children but a little book filled with so much wisdom. It is, indeed, an allegory of the human condition. And it is, indeed, something to learn from. Very thought-provoking and beautiful.
