"'Bien sûr', dit le renard. 'Tu n'es encore pour moi qu'un petit garçon tout semblable à cent mille petits garçons. Et je n'ai pas besoin de toi. Et tu n'as pas besoin de moi non plus. Je ne suis pour toi qu'un renard semblable à cent mille renards. Mais, si tu m'apprivoises, nous aurons besoin l'un de l'autre. Tu seras pour moi unique au monde. Je serai pour toi unique au monde.'" - the fox from The Little Prince (by St Exupery)
Translation : "'Of course', said the fox. 'Right now, you're only a little boy similar to one hundred thousand little boys in my eyes. And I don't need you. And you don't need me either. To you, I'm just a fox similar to one hundred thousand foxes. But, if you tame me, we will need each other. To me, you'll be unique in the world. To you, I'll be unique in the world.'" [please read The Little Prince because it's so good]
