Antoine de Saint-Exupery, “The Little Prince”
Grown-ups love figures. When you tell them that you have 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 many brothers has 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.

Happiness is composed of misfortunes avoided...I was a pitcher, shortstop and outfielder...Don't be scared to fly high, 'cause it will inspire others...The truth is, we all face hardships of some kind...Listen widely to remove your doubts...When you jump for joy, beware that no one moves...
