Text from Little Prince
The little prince went back to look at the roses again.
You're not at all like my rose. You're nothing at all yet, he told them. No one has tamed you and you haven't tamed
anyone. You're the way my fox was. He was just a fox like a hundred thousand others. But I've made him my friend, and
now he's the only fox in all the world.
And the roses were humbled.
You're lovely, but you're empty, he went on. 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 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 rose.
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince
