Antoine de Saint-Exupery, “The Little Prince”
- One must command from each what each can perform. Authority is based first of all upon reason. If you command your subjects to jump into the ocean, there will be a revolution. I am entitled to command obedience because my orders are reasonable.
- Then my sunset?
- You shall have your sunset. I shall command it. But I shall wait, according to my science of government, until conditions are favorable.

Some people are just stuck in their ways...If you change the way you tell your own story...We must be our own before we can be another's...I never expect to see a perfect work...If you're going through hell...Empty spaces...
