âOne only understands the things that one tames,â said the fox. âMen have no more time to understand anything. They buy things all ready made at the shops. But there is no shop anywhere where one can buy friendship, and so men have no friends any more. If you want a friend, tame meâŠâ

Alors mon coucher de soleil ? rappela le petit prince qui jamais n'oubliait une question une fois qu'il l'avait posée.
Ton coucher de soleil, tu l'auras. Je l'exigerai. Mais j'attendrai, dans ma science du gouvernement, que les conditions soient favorables.
âOne must command from each what each can perform,â the king went on. âAuthority 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.â
âThen my sunset?â insisted the little prince, who never let go of a question once he had asked it. âYou shall have your sunset. I shall command it. But I shall wait, according to my science of government, until conditions are favorable.â
