The little prince

Met up with a friend for lunch today. As we were talking, it made me realised how many years we have lost contact and it was great to finally sit down and have lunch together.

Made me thought of this quote from my favourite book.

“I am looking for friends. What does that mean -- tame?"


"It is an act too often neglected," said the fox. "It means to establish ties." 



"To establish ties?" 



"Just that," said the fox. "To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world....”

It used to be my favourite quote and I still remind myself of that constantly. :)
I even bought a hardcopy of the book. LOLs. Highly reccommended :)
