藏書票獻給您 珍藏小王子的雋永名句
☆沙漠之所以美麗,是因為在某個地方藏了一口井……
What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well…
☆是因為你在你的玫瑰花上花費了時間,才讓你的玫瑰花變得那麼重要。
It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important.
☆假如你馴養我,我們就會彼此需要,對我來說,你將成為獨一無二;對你來說,我也將成為唯一。
if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world.
☆現在我要說出我的祕密,一個再簡單不過的祕密:事物的精髓用眼睛是看不到的,只有用心才能看得透徹。
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 eyes.
☆人們忘了這個道理,但是你不應該忘。你對你所馴養的東西永遠有責任,你要為你的玫瑰花負責……
Men have forgotten this truth. But you must not forget it. You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed. You are responsible for your rose…
☆房子、星星和沙漠之所以美麗,是因為一些看不見的東西!
The house, the stars, the desert – what gives them their beauty is something that is invisible!
☆我不吃麵包,麥田對我沒有用處,也不具任何意義……但是,你有金黃色的頭髮……要是你馴養了我,那些金黃色的小麥就會讓我想起你,同時我也將開始喜歡聽麥浪翻飛的聲音……
The wheat fields have nothing to say to me… But you have hair that is the color of gold…when you have tamed me! The grain, which is also golden, will bring me back the thought of you. And I shall love to listen to the wind in the wheat.
☆所有的人都有星星,但星星對不同的人有不同的意義……所有這些星星都默不作聲。你──唯有你──所擁有的星星和別人不同……
All men have the stars, but they are not the same things for different people…all these stars are silent. You – you alone – will have the stars as no one else has them…
