The little prince becomes friends with a fox, who teaches

him that the most important things in life are not seen with
the eyes, but with the heart. As the fox says, “One sees only
with the heart. What is essential is invisible to the eye.”

The fox also helps him realise that his rose is special, not
because she is the only rose, but because of the time and
love he has given her. This makes him responsible for her.
The prince understands this and says he is responsible for
his rose.

Even with this realisation, he still feels lonely because he is

far away from her. He ends his story by sharing his
experiences with a railway switchman and a salesclerk.

many people fail to see what truly matters
in life. Still, the little prince is focused on
returning to his rose, and he quietly
makes plans with the snake to go back to
