one's suffering disappears when one lets oneself go, when one yields - even to sadness.

Nice collection of quotes from all his works. Of course I wanted more from The Little Prince than was given, but you should just read the book if you truly want those quotes.

A beautifull little book of wisdom and inspiration! It has definitely put a smile on my face.
These quotes spoke to me especially
“The seed haunted by the sun never fails to find its way between the stones in the ground”
“One’s suffering dissapears when one lets one self go, when one yields- even to sadness”

I'm a fan of The Little Prince, so I liked reading this, especially in these troubling times.

I love some of the quotes in this book. Most of my favorites were from The Little Prince, though they are a lot more fun to read inside the book of The Little Prince, instead of out of context. A quick book with some lovely quotes. It would have been nice to have it a bit longer.

Nicely compiled collection of quotes from across Saint-Exupéry's writings. I'm a sucker for quotes and aphorisms, so this hit the sweet spot for me.

This is a beautifully presented volume of tidbits and quotes from the collected works of Antoine de Saint Exupery, the insights are funny thoughtful and sometimes moving. (Anyone who has read The Little Prince knows how beautiful Antoine de Saint Exupery's writing is).

As there is only really a sentence per page if you try to read this book all at once you miss the significance and insights of some of the quotes, instead this is a great book to have by your bed to read a little of each night.

Although I would recommend this book to anyone, as it is called 'A Guide for Grown-ups' I would particularly recommend that this would make a really great gift for someone celebrating a 'grown-up' birthday.

I'm not sure what I expected, except that I expected to like it better. It was OK. I think I expected more than one quote on a page, but admittedly I don't have a lot of experience with quote books. The quotes themselves were well chosen, there just weren't very many.
