“我到过一个星球,上面住着一个红脸先生。他从来没闻过一朵花。他从来没有看过一颗星星。他什么人也没有喜欢过。除了算账以外,他什么也没有做过。他整天同你一样老是说:‘我有正经事,我是个严肃的人’。这使他傲气十足。 他简直不象是个人,他是个蘑菇。”
"A what?"
“是个什么?”
"A mushroom!"
“是个蘑菇!”
The little prince was now white with rage.
小王子当时气得脸色发白。
"The flowers have been growing thorns for millions of years. For millions of years the sheep have been eating them just the same. And is it not a matter of consequence to try to understand why the flowers go to so much trouble to grow thorns which are never of any use to them? Is the warfare between the sheep and the flowers not important? Is this not of more consequence than a fat red-faced gentleman's sums? And if I know-- I, myself-- one flower which is unique in the world, which grows nowhere but on my planet, but which one little sheep can destroy in a single bite some morning, without even noticing what he is doing-- Oh! You think that is not important!"
“几百万年以来花儿都在制造着刺,几百万年以来羊仍然在吃花。要搞清楚为什么花儿费那么大劲给自己制造没有什么用的刺,这难道不是正经事?难道羊和花之间的战争不重要?这难道不比那个大胖子红脸先生的账目更重要?如果我认识一朵人世间唯一的花,只有我的星球上有它,别的地方都不存在,而一只小羊胡里胡涂就这样把它一下子毁掉了,这难道不重要?”
