Erwin Jenni You were near me for a few moments. You made my heart beat faster and gave me so much joy. Beautiful young fox, I didn’t know you and yet it seems to me that you’ve met me before, somehow, somewhere. Maybe in secret, maybe you know me better than I know you. It may well be that you’ve been watching me for a while and smiled at my inexperience a little. I’ve had this desire in my heart for so long, to meet you somewhere out there in the open wilderness. That evening, my innermost wish came true to see you, to admire you and to marvel at your whole way. You have so many beautiful things about you and your senses are so strong. Your cleverness is legendary and is no coincidence, my dear fox. That one day, that blessed evening, something changed in my heart when I met you in this place. I hope that someday and somewhere you will see me again and recognize me, because it is the time of the foxes.
No one has familiarized you and you have not familiarized yourself with anyone either. You are what my fox was. He was nothing but a fox like a hundred thousand others. But I made him my friend and now he is the only one in the World.
And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye. The Little Prince Quotes by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
