“Thus it was that the little prince tamed the fox. And when the time came for his departure, the fox said: ‘Oh!… I shall cry!’

‘It is your own fault,’ said the little prince. ‘I wished you no harm but you wanted me to tame you.’

‘Yes, indeed,’ said the fox.

‘But you are going to cry!’ said the little prince.

‘That is so,’ said the fox.

‘Then it has not helped you in any way!’

‘It has helped me,’ said the fox, ‘because of the color of the wheat fields.’

-Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, from The Little Prince
