No one has tamed you and you haven't tamed anyone.You're the way my fox was. He was just a fox like a hundred thousand others. But I've made him my friend, and now he's the only fox in the world.

The quote highlights the deep connection between individuals and the unique relationships they foster. It suggests that true companionship involves understanding and bonding with others, transforming them from mere entities into cherished friends. The speaker reflects on how a fox, like any other, becomes special through the act of friendship, illustrating the transformative power of love and care.

This idea resonates with the central themes of "The Little Prince," where relationships and personal connections are paramount. By taming or bonding with someone, we acknowledge their individuality and importance in our lives. This enriches our experiences and brings meaning, turning the ordinary into something profoundly beautiful and singular.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
